« Consumer Tips Website | Main | Sunday fun » July 23, 2006Russians Attack ITAIt appears as though the ITA Forum has been "HACKED-BY--ZULUM", a shady character of Russian origins. (Warning: by clicking on the forum link you're offered to download a file; don't download it). If anyone with forum know-how would like to lend a hand in removing the hack while saving the forum, please feel free to drop us a line. Posted by Joshua Claybourn at July 23, 2006 11:49 AM CommentsThe folks at phpBB will give assistance if you contact their security support team... You could also restore a backup copy of the DB backend if you have one, or perhaps export all transactions prior to the hack date. Posted by: Foltz at July 23, 2006 02:05 PM | permalink I would have to second what Foltz said. I moved from phpBB to WebWiz forums a few months back after the second hack job destroyed everything in my science fiction club's forums except the membership list. I remember some of what I learned while fixing the first hack of the board but it requires full access to ITA's management toolbox section of the web hosting system where the forum is hosted. Scripts and databases have to be examined. It's probably something they planted in one of your mySQL databases. Posted by: Jim S at July 23, 2006 02:36 PM | permalink Joshua, What the other two said is accurate. And, I sent an email ofering my servies to assist if you wish. RevMac Posted by: RevMac at July 24, 2006 12:18 PM | permalink What you really need is for someone to make sure this doesn't happen again by taking a baseball bat to the hacker's computer. Posted by: ConservaTibbs at July 24, 2006 03:28 PM | permalink Pheh! He or she can buy (or quite possibly steal) a new computer. Someone needs to take a baseball bat to the hacker's *head*! :-P Posted by: Eric Seymour at July 24, 2006 03:46 PM | permalink Posted by: ConservaTibbs at July 25, 2006 01:21 PM | permalink Post a comment |
