MR2ROC Hacked and.. gone.. hopefully IMOC is immune..

Post by aaronjb »

Just thought I'd post up here and let you know;

Half an hour ago or so someone reporting themselves as "Hussain X" of "Iraq hackeRs" managed to get into MR2ROC (somehow) and:

a) Disable the admin pages
b) Disable the site
c) Deface the site to link to www.islamweb.net


Now we run phpBB also, so there's always the chance they'll come here.

I haven't yet worked out the attack vector (last time it was the phpBBGarage, but I don't suspect that this time), and if I work it out I'll let you guys here know.


Now back to work I go :?

best of luck getting it sorted.. I think IMOC has had it's fair share of hacking so hopefuly we'll be ok!
If you can't see the angle, you're in trouble.

:lol: Nah - just ran out time to browse four car forums per day ;)


Anyway - the damage was fairly minimal once we got down to it (they'd just stuffed rubbish into a few config fields in the database that was stopping it from working properly - which probably also stopped them from hacking any further, fortunately).

I now know the attack vector - it wasn't the Garage this time, it was related to the original Garage attack though.. Seems back when we were first compromised one of the password hashes was posted on the 'net... it's been floating around since December (from what I can find) so it had to happen sooner or later.


Sucks to be me since I should have thought about that account when we were warned last time.


We'll be back up again in a couple of days - once I finish mopping up the fallout.

Thanks for the kind wishes folks :)

Now I just need to move us to a new host so we don't keep running out of database space.. :lol:
