vBulletin - BELOW 3.5.3!?

[furca]

My forum was 3.5.1. It was hacked earlier today. Thankfully the hacker made a backup of the files on the site and no harm was done.

I suggest all of you to go ahead and patch or fix this if you haven't already and own a vBulletin forum.

Your saying the hacker backed up your files after hacking into your forum?? Why would the hacker be so nice?

 

[VisualDigits]

Is it hacking when somebody does you good?

He just made a index.html file that says "Ba Ba you've been hacked". And put everything else udner another directory.

How do you know it's a he not a she? Could be one of your friends I guess.

Here's another tip... very important.

The standard admin panel is /admincp rename that directory to a weird name so everyone doesn't know where to go to attack your admin login.

Thanks for the tip,

Also DCG. Last night the guy made it so when you went to HabboDiscussion.com it redirected to the .login page... whitch made the site crash.

All is well now however.

sometimes it is not the vBulletin but your php/mysql version.. or other scripts that are stored in your server.. etc..

too many variables
