Yes, my friends site just got hacked using a new exploit? I'm not so sure, but it looks like they actually took the site down, not just putting boards offline, actually taking everything down. Now they're threatening to hack my other friends site which they will. I wanted to let Administrators be aware of this new exploit or the picture on these boards: http://z8.invisionfree.com/Finallegacy/index.php?act=idx Edited by Sefket-ZNS, Feb 4 2009, 07:33 PM.

Sorry to hear about this. =-/ There's little any of us can do unfortunately however you should probably submit a ticket with the details of the incident so the administrators can look into this. It may sound odd, particularly to those who are security conscious, but quite often these can occur due to insecure passwords in which the ROOT account is taken over (either through direct access or by gaining entry to the ROOT account's email), giving the cracker full control over the board. I'd highlight our Hacking FAQ for more information, but if you believe this to be something else I'd open a ticket so it can be looked into or recommend that your friend do so. If you or friend are unable to submit a ticket from a board then you can opt to use the support board's Personal Support Ticket system instead. ^-^ |
