So yeah, as I type this, the site has already been compromised. Only the main page was down, apparently. Thoughts anyone?

I don't really know much about how the site is set up and all but based on briefly looking at the source code for the main page and searching online I think the following links might be helpful. Looks like if you're using phpbb and missed a critical update that would explain things. It sounds like it's happened to a bunch of people. If that isn't the case, sorry for the misdirection.

I have a feeling that it was through that exploit. But I thought Genma already fixed that? :crazy:

Also, I just talked to eltinator and he said D-Addicts is down as well...

I found out D-Addicts was down first and came here to look for info and found out this had been hacked.

I'll never understand why people do bad things like this.

Hope things get fixed soon.

*edit* When I was trying to make a post in the other hacked thread, this is what loaded. ''This Account Has Been Suspended
Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.''
It's not coming up right now, but I thought I'd mention it.

Well, at the bottom of the page it says "Powered by phpBB 2.0.1 © 2004"
The most recent version you should have according to those sites is 2.0.13.
It's possible whoever is in charge of that thought they did update to this version and missed something because if they updated completely the right number would be down there.
I noticed d-addicts was down as well. I am very sad. What kind of horrible hacker would try to take away our j-drama-y goodness? :shamefulcry:

I am so glad this is back up and working again. I just hope things can get back to normal.
This is all just so strange.

I hope D-Addicts is able to get back up and running soon.

Yeah, the Drama and Artiste dicussion forums are gone. I noticed that those two forums were the ones that were most affected by the hack.
17 Mar 2005, 14:47 #16
