I got hacked: My Hetzner server started mining Monero

I disrecommend UFW.

firewalld is a much better pick in current year and will not grow unmaintainable the way UFW rules can.

    firewall-cmd --persistent --set-default-zone=block
    firewall-cmd --persistent --zone=block --add-service=ssh
    firewall-cmd --persistent --zone=block --add-service=https
    firewall-cmd --persistent --zone=block --add-port=80/tcp
    firewall-cmd --reload

Configuration is backed by xml files in /etc/firewalld and /usr/lib/firewalld instead of the brittle pile of sticks that is the ufw rules files. Use the nftables backend unless you have your own reasons for needing legacy iptables.

Specifically for docker it is a very common gotcha that the container runtime can and will bypass firewall rules and open ports anyway. Depending on your configuration, those firewall rules in OP may not actually do anything to prevent docker from opening incoming ports.

Newer versions of firewalld gives an easy way to configure this via StrictForwardPorts=yes in /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf.

Like I said in another comment, drop Docker, install podman.

>>except+3q
podman is not a drop-in replacement for Docker. You can replace it with podman but expect to encounter minor inconsistencies and some major differences, especially if you use Docker Compose or you want to use podman in rootless mode. It's far from just being a matter of `alias docker=podman`.

The only non-deprecated way of having your Compose services restart automatically is with Quadlet files which are systemd unit files with extra options specific to containers. You need to manually translate your docker-compose.yml into one or more Quadlet files. Documentation for those leaves a lot to be desired too, it's just one huge itemized man page.
