Website Hacked
I've had one website defaced and one forum completely hacked. The forum was IPB which had the security flaw and the website used CPanel which had the flaw. Neither did much damage but they were hacked. Anyone else had a website/forum hacked? Just curious to hear some stories.

Oh yeah, we were hacked just a couple weeks ago! By some group named bios team or something similar. Fortunately, they only replaced the index page. I thought they had gotten into our site but they actually got into the server.

I don't know and I didn't bother to ask my hosting company. If you Google bios team others have the same experience.

the hack/exploit that Lyte is talking about was the Kernnel/RH exploit that was out about 2 months ago, this is what prompted the all the latest kernnel updates.

Oh yeah. Had the following scrips hacked:
vBulletin
IPB
phpBB
phpNuke
etomite
indexu

I keep backups for database and FILES too, so I just needed few minutes to restore. So far no one changed anything in my databases, only files were replaced or edited

Oh no, I have phpbb. I don't think my forum is big enough to get hacked, but I would still be devastated if it was. I try to keep up to date backups, but sometimes I forget.

IPB tends to be very hackable. Ive had experiences with someone called Muhamidali or something like that who hacked an IPB forum i know of. IPB seems to get hacked a lot.

@Lyte Ive heard of bios team before, they seem to be quite a good team of hackers, in a bad sorta way. I have a friend who got hacked by them.
