I wish you guys would stop calling it hacking, there was no sql injection or any attack, simply those kids got the password to Chris's domain registrar and edited the index. I see no hacking, I see script kiddies running around with little keylogger scripts and Chris probably fell for it. I have no idea what happened but MYBB is pretty damn secure .
That sure explains why they want to take down scriptkiddie hackforums :lol:
:lol: So so true

@People calling MyBB sooo secure.... I guess thats why they have released so many security patches huh... If it was so secure it woudn't need patching... Just like any software it has its faults... When they find them they fix them...

Their script kiddies huh? I guess thats why in the past week they have found several exploits in WHMCS...

They also have the MyBB database and threatening to leak the database just like they did with WHMCS.

Do research before you call someone a script kiddie...


Read :
Pugh took pains in the WHMCS blog to point out that the attack "was not directly due to any lapses in the security in place on either our server or WHMCS itself," implying that the lapse was on HostGator's part.

Yeah they are hackers huh? Wait, let me spoon feed you some more:
According to WHMCS lead developer Matt Pugh, the perpetrators employed a social-engineering attack to dupe the company's Web hosting company -- reportedly HostGator -- to give up administrator credentials. With credentials in hand, the group accessed WHMCS' database on Monday to steal customer's credit card information and passwords, as well as user names and support tickets. UGNazi proceeded to leak links to the stolen records on Pastebin.

Yeah they're are totally "Hackers".
Don't be a hypocrite and tell me I should do research when you have no idea what you're talking about.
 
So according to you social engineering = script kiddies? Funny stuff as its a much more useful skill in the real world than hacking and not everyone can pull it off.
 
Sorry, I was in a hurry last night it was uznazi but they seem just as bad as Anonymous hackers..

But what I don’t get is if they hate hacking forums, why are they hacking this does not make sense because there not any better than anyone on HF, Also going after A open source project is phatic..

Im also hoping that they do not relase the database because if that gets released my passwords, information and username is going to get

realised to the public, and please do research before saying that they are just script kiddies, if they released the WHC database im surprised what

they will do with a great software like mybb..
They seem pretty secure in my books so this group knows what they
were doing. Mybb better take legal action this is serious enough plus

almost thousands of user’s information are under risk, Inlcluding my sites domain.


PS: Sorry about the grammar im currently at school (Yr11) at the moment

Im Also receiving this message when I try to access Mybb

Think I care? If your system has exploits and is insecure that's your fault not mine. I don't see hackforums getting hacked, they sure sound like hackers now! You believe everything you read on-line don't you? Just because they say they have access to a MYBB DB of users doesn't mean nothing. What's the point of obtaining access to MYBB db anyway? It's free software, think before you post.
Thousands of email addresses? That's usually a slightly important to some.

And decrypting the passwords 😉
 
Maybe the MyBB Downloads are infected with a keylogger or something now?
 
Well, this sucks. We were just about to get a new addition to our forum rolling when this crap happened. That's just not kosher.

Interesting stuff 🙂

It is and scary..

This is pathetic that you carnt even own a site on the internet without people breaking in, or bringing it offline in another way. Sometimes i think there's no point if these things are going to happened to every site atleast once in its life time...

I read a quote from them that there attacks will countuie and they will always be watching them

We have, and will continue to cause destruction. Are you mad? We have given you warnings and shown you examples of what we can do

I hope they will be fully working again..

Edit: Looking like there in good progress
Fri 1st June @ 4:25 AM GMT: We're currently in the middle of building out a few new servers to host/run MyBB on (perfect opportunity, right?), which means the relaunch of our website and community forums is still a work in progress. We'll have the MyBB blog back up shortly. Thanks for your continued patience.
🙂
 
This is an update, I dont think this is over, Heres an update on there wikipedia page.


In June 2012, UGNazi targeted the well-known imageboard 4chan. They are reported to have hacked Cloudflare's database.

now CloudFare??

Seems like we carnt join any sites..

Empty threats. They have nothing.

I just hope it gets back up and all of your forums are safe in the future.

It was an isolated attack. All MyBB forums are safe.

No they are not. They're hosted offsite.
 
The mybb files are hosted on a file sharing site so the files should be safe snd so should all your forums, as Nathan said it was an isolated attack.

It appears there blogs backup, They are recovering fast 🙂

Edit: Oops i spoke to soon now im getting this error
