Ugnazi has now hacked into mybb.com

They've also hacked huffingtonpost. While Anonymous is claiming the hack of the Department of Justice earlier last week, some people appear to be pointing at the UGNazi guys for a hand in it also.

We'll see how it plays out - ComCast was also hit by UGNazi around the 20th or so.
 
Gotta admit, a lot of stuff is being hacked lately, I heard cloudflare had a breach too now.

It's becoming silly.

UGNazi arent actually hacking as such, they are using social engineering, where they pertain to be the owners of sites/domains and manage to pursuade hosts etc. to give them logins to servers etc.
 
I am sorry, but this escalation in hack attacks looks more and more like cyber terrorism. Cloudfare is no small shop. This should be a huge concern for everyone. But what is most impressive is how easy they make it look. Perhaps a wake-up call for everyone to start getting serious about online security.
 
I think every attack has been due to social engineering, if I'm not mistaken. They don't really hack anything at all, just BS their way in, which honestly looks worse on the website owners and providers (IMHO)... This is definitely and eye opener though, and everyone should be paying attention.
 
Take WHMCS. how they got into their server as reported by Matt (WHMCS) was UGNazi member Cosmos impersonated MATT with a Hostgator live chat agent and managed to get the HG agent to give him the login details to their server, so not much fault with WHMCS , apart from they should not have had everything on the one box.
 
well how was WHMCS going to tell everyone beforehand as UGNazi took over their website and brought it down along with their forum and licenceing server and also took over the WHMCS twitter account.

I like many were informed of the attack through a 3rd party contact. i heard of the social engineering method of attack within 24 hours of it happening as i have the msn contact of one of their techs.
 
Just goes to show you can have your stuff locked down and all it takes is one person not doing their job properly and poof.

Perhaps you should share what actually happened.

The Four Critical Security Flaws that Resulted in Last Friday's Hack

Post Mortem: Today's Attack; Apparent Google Apps/Gmail Vulnerability; and How to Protect Yourself

"redirected DNS records."
One customer & they used the email recovery process (since changed) to do so. From the posts: "This morning a hacker was able to access a customer's account on CloudFlare and change that customer's DNS records."


-No CloudFlare database was compromised by the attack.
-The hackers only had access to emails for a short period of time.
-No credit card numbers or other information was taken (we don't store credit card information on our site all).
