We have been hacked

Post by snoopdog »

We had a nice little hacker stop by this morning and exploit some script. I am still looking into the problem so all i can do until i get some time is back up everything. Time is a thing i do not have alot of.

I am finally going to update to the newest version of the BB as soon as everything is backed up. I expect this to take less than an hour but giving it an hour as worse case scenerio. I know i said this would be done months ago but since the BB was working fine i never messed with it. Anyway away with the old, in with the new. I expect this upgrade to be done by 8:30pm. If the BB says it is down then you know what is going on.

We are up to 2.11 phpBB now, which is the current release. Tomorrow morning i will getting 'everything else' working. What is not working is.

1) Attachments
2) Chatbox
3) Gallery
4) Statistics
5) Webmail

Now I know for sure that everyone wants the Gallery and Attachment mod back operational. BUT if no one uses the Chatbox and Statistic I would strongly suggest us not putting them back in there. Excess scripts are just another way for a hacker to get back into our BBS. I will leave it to you guys though, give me some feedback. I will start again in the morning and get our Webmail, Attachments and Gallery operational.

Yeah he was not worried about alot of stuff. I guess he was just making a point, which is fine. I needed updating anyway.

Wow, i guess i am flattered. They have hacked over 6k web pages here is there website.

http://www.zone-h.com/en/defacements/fi ... r=un-root/

We are not on the cover yet but look at all of the ones that when you click still say un-root. I doubt anyone is fully protected against this guy. I can at least say i had ours back up and running in a few hours. The other hundred hacked today are still back up which leads me to believe they did not have a backup or did not make there pages themselves.

I for one don't mind if the chat is left out, tried it and it got frustrating that night anyways. Could be because the captain was by my side :? And as for the stats, sorry, but that does not teach me anything about reef keeping. Sorry if I offend anyone, just my personal opinion.

Ahh Captains, woman after my own heart. I can say that stuff will be my downfall. On a good note our redirects are picking up, I guess the webcrawlers are finally finding us. While i was looking at the raw logs tonight i noticed that www.bet.com is even spidering to find stuff about snoopdog on our site.

Snoop, wasn't BET your original goal anyways? :lol:

The chat isn't used by anyone... I think. The stats are intresting, but I agree with Karen... not really needed.

BTW... how do I get back into my gallery? My username and password quit working a few months back.
Wind me up!

I personally enjoyed the stats page... but if it's a security hole, it's gotta go :)

You need to just PM me with what you want your password to be. When we upgraded Gallery, it did not retain some of the information.
