No, they wouldn't. At least i dont think so, maybe the mods were selfish but Ubi HAS to be clever; look at all the games they've made!

Re: Important Information
I'm sure they didn't use this dumbass worm, maybe they wrote it in order not to be found out...

Of course fanfics are allowed. Anyway, I wouldn't like to be hacked... at least I often save my DB and I have a backup of my files...

Re: Important Information
the site defaced thingy belongs only to the Net-Worm.Perl.Santy.a worm
at least the ARZO knew how to look on the interenet some hacker's stuff...
there is no protection against this worm since they were running phpbb 2.0.5.
The only protection is installing the 2.0.11 phpbb version.
Net-Worm.Perl.Santy.a is a worm used mostly for phpbb and it is a networm

Re: Important Information
it works in a very n00bish way...
It is relatively easy to hack a phpbb board.
the santy worm replaces all .htm, .php, .asp, .shtm, .jsp and phtm files into files of its own code and "defaces" the entire phpbb setting. quite easy but very effective.
I ve tryed that on a board i made yesterday and guess what the message was?

as my screenshot shows

Re: Important Information
hey, even the experts use the easy way out
Whats better, utilizing a hard thing, or doing an easy one which will be just as effective?

Re: Important Information
too bad there are easier ways that a lot of hackers aren't aware of.
these guys must be some white hat hackers...

Re: Important Information
The easiest way is just to delete everything, but wheres the fun in that? :p
Yeah, and they must be really confident too, if they dare to go after something big like RZ!

Re: Important Information
trust me that RZ was as exploitable as melted cheese.
these "hackers" have done one good thing though in using this worm that is that it doesn't leave any logfile so it's hard to go after them.

Re: Important Information
Yeah, thats the best way around it if you dont wanna get sued 
How do you know how exploitable RZ was? I know nothing about it; i'm not a hacker

Re: Important Information
i know because i knew the phpbb version RZ was running on that is 2.0.5 and it's as exploitable as melted cheese.Inaam wrote:Yeah, thats the best way around it if you dont wanna get sued
How do you know how exploitable RZ was? I know nothing about it; i'm not a hacker
and also because once accidentally (and see how even accidentally 2.0.5 could get hacked) got the password of a user.
