dc2k Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 hmm, this post didn't seemed like it posted. I just got a blank page so every time I refreshed it, it must have re-posted thread. Apologies. I couldn't delete them. Seems like someone did though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Null Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I think we're back up and running. Something happened on the server..... Actually it pretty much seemed like you guys got hacked again this morning. A strange scripting site was demanding access from my browser whenever I clicked on a thread and it redirected me to some dating site or somesuch crud. I dunno why these forums are such an enticing target for hackers, but it looks like the script monkeys are back at it again. Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc2k Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 yeah I saw that too. Looking at the scripts that were trying to load on the page, I think the malicious script was from w9statistics.info as when I let that run it loaded that dating site you mention.

Luckily the server backs everything up daily. Even though I did a "restore" we didn't lose any content and everything is working as it should.

Null Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Yeah, but if they broke in last night, then chances are you have an unpatched exploit on your server. They WILL be back. Did you run all your server updates today? If I were you I wouldn't breathe easy until you've done the next month of updates if it's some zero day exploit.
