Beware this guy

Authored by: Creator on Saturday, March 04 2006 @ 12:10 am EST

On Wednesday, March 1st, sometime before this posting someone hacked into my website justrage.com and killed all my stories and then some. Fortunately I had a backup. Unfortunately it wasn't a recent one. After I managed to restore my website to normal operation and patched it with sr4, this same person logged in as an Admin earlier today and posted a story saying that he decided not to destroy my site again for whatever reason. I checked the logs and this person's IP address tracked back to someplace in Russia. And now I see this post. You do the math.

I assume you changed your password after restoring your backup?

The person above sent us a description of his supposed exploit which we have been unable to reproduce. We've asked him to demonstrate it but haven't heard back since.

Also, as usual, don't forget to check for vulnerabilities in 3rd party add-ons, e.g. Gallery, phpBB, ...

bye, Dirk

Of course, but the guy got in using a regular user account and somehow getting ahold of the default admin account from there. Anyway I see the new sr5 patch and I hope that this resolves these issues. Truly I can't point the finger at anyone, I just find it a little too coincidential with this guy and with what happened to my site.
