Why do you call them "script kiddie" and not a hacker? IMO it's still a hacker even if the attack is not very sophisticated or even if you made a big security mistake.
I think it’s fine. Script kiddie is a strict subset of “hacker” in the negative sense of the word “hacker”. It’s a way to convey to the reader the level of sophistication used in the attack by describing the hacker in this way.
Right, and there should be a sense of shame associated with being pwned by, for example, not setting a password on your public internet accessible (redis || postgres || mongo) instances. You didn’t get hacked, you let a child have their way with your application. Hence: script kiddie
