Thinkpad forum website hijacked???

Thinkpad pad website hijacked??
When I came to this website I kept getting redirected to a website something about owned by SHOCK... I had to quickly click on one of the forums before I get redirected.

am I the only one experiencing this?

That has got to be the lamest hacker ever:

1: the name sucks (leet script kiddie)
2: comon! have you seen bill's site? (sorry bill, it's clear you don't do know how to web code :)) it's clear security wasn't on his mind
3: wow... point your clever hack to a domain.. that way no one will have any record of your misdeed.
4: shock, your name, your website, and your hack is lame. why did you even bother? it's a freaking forum, no one cares, and your hack is easily thwarted with some careful clicking and redirection policies. why don't you make use of your life and direct it to something more important; be constructive! I hear issuing DDOS attacks on spammer websites is in now, why don't you go be a hero as opposed to a tool.

There has been a XSS exploit for phpBB, which is fixed in the latest version (see http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=240636). Shame that it needed this idiot to bring it to our attention.

I was wondering what happened this morning.

It's amazing that in today's busy and fast-paced world there's someone out there with so little going on in his/her life that he can sit around and hack a bulletin board of all things.

Maybe when the hacker turns 16 he'll discover girls and find something more constructive to do...

Here's a little more information, in case you do want to try and follow up with some complaints. A trace shows the final destination for VB-TECH-HOSTING.COM (also yahoo-assault.org) to be dimenoc.com (64.132.144.20), with the immediate upstream alter.net.

Looks like an up and coming hacker. I guess everyone, losers included, must start somewhere...Image

I emailed Bill about the exploit a couple days prior to the hack, but it takes time to get the exploit changed over, if you haven't implemented phpBB.

the server owner was informed but did not act quickly enough..

but he acted fast once we WERE hacked..

It's always like that isn't it?

You: "Could you patch my bbs to the latest version to avoid this exploit?"
Him: "Sure I'll get to it"
You: "Um, Houston, we have a problem. My bbs has been hacked."
Him: "Taken care of, sorry for the delay. Hope you had a backup of that forum."
You: "Gee, thanks for your expeditious help."

or something like that.
