Let's see how long it lasts this time... Everyone be sure to thank Provid0r of thel3vel for hacking the forum again.. for no obvious reason whatsoever, just like the 3 times before that...
ok seriously obviously there is a serious problem either with the server security or the security of this board. (vbulletin) my suggestion is get a white hat hacker to hack the board and figure out its vulnerabilities so we can fix them....makes sense to me.
Were they using the same exploit all these times? I love the way their server could not quite cope with redirected traffic.
We're open to any (honorable) forum member running a security scan against our forum. PM me, Dave or HaRRo with your results.
Im happy seeing our society back. Miss you Clix! **edited** Iv been sick all day not being able to see the face of BHW What exactly are the plans of the Admins to strengthen security and put an end to this?
The problem most likely lies within the vbulletin mods (addons). PS - The guys that hacked us read these threads...
yea and they are pathetic.. those guys are just a bunch of scrip kiddies. edit: wow they have no life http://thel3vel.net/board/index.php?showtopic=4801
Glad to see the forum back.Damn hope not to be BH addicted as today I've felt strange without accessing it
It just does not make any sense to me. They are either kids or just very bored. Why would anyone waste their time defacing a forum over and over again? Why not hack some basket instead and steal some credit card numbers or hijack a few paypal addys? Then they would at least be making a bit of money out of it.
LMAO I totally agree with ya - I've been going through BHW withdrawls - I think I need to check into the BHW anonymous because I am totally addicted.
seeing that this board is vbulletin software 3.7.0. from some research the only exploit i can see on vbulletin side is this mod. mod: Code: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=144869 source: Code: http://www.cyber-warrior.org/Forum/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=32&TopicID=262531&PagePosition=&showActive=&ReturnPage=Active im not sure if we have that mod installed but i believe that could be the one if we do have that one.
I am adding virus protection to scan for trojans and viruses. Rackspace told me the hackers were getting in through vBulletin as the apache and everything else is pretty secure. We are going to add another two other security measures which I will mention once they are installed.
hey dave do you have the ajax registration mod installed? Code: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=144869
Welcome back... hopefully the exploit can be found or something can be done to secure the site so this wont continue happening.
