I don't think there's any way they can get that. However, the
development server is not tested for security and not meant to be used
in any situation which requires any security. It wouldn't hurt to
change your database password.

What command were you running to execute the development server? By
default it only serves your app on port 8000, and to localhost only.
You'd have to explicitly serve it on a publicly-accessible port and
allow access to clients other than 127.0.0.1. Is your development
server publicly accessible? Most people do their development on a
machine behind a NAT router, which should be pretty safe unless you're
explicitly forwarding ports to your personal computer.
