MyBB Community Forums

Just posting this to let you know that MyBB 1.6 has a major exploit that is allowing this new hacker group called "The Defaced" to completely rip apart your forum. They're starting campaigns against various people taking down their forums.

These are a list of websites that have fallen victim to this hacker group;

http://ataricentral.com/
http://cheatdata.com/
http://domado.com/
http://witza.com/

My website was one of the unfortunate victims of these series of defaces. My forum didn't use any plugins that contained vulnerability cause I didn't use any.

your site URL please.. what is the reason for breaking of your site ?

man thats terrible

Hmm. MyBB team should look into this. Although not all the sites mentioned there are ran by MyBB, as far as i know.

this issue has been already discussed AND closed by supporting team..

I guess not bcos i got my forum defaced too running on lattest version...

http://www.mybbcentral.com/ is down? WTF!!??

This is all because of a war against Labrocca, so all sites using plugins and stuff or anything related to mybb central/hackforums in any way will involve you in this mass deface.

Shoot, this is bad news. If they can take down MyBBCentral they can take down them all.

Off-topic; Why do all the popular hacker groups have Twitter accounts?
