If the wiki was configured to allow anyone to edit, they may have broken ToS at the very worst. Nothing illegal happened.

That's very different than popping an artifactory server with a 0day.



If you take the matter from the spirit of the law perspective, I believe this can be illegal.

IANAL though, this is not legal advice.
