Hardman_506thIR 0 Posted April 29, 2007 A public service announcement goes out to everyone (especially members of 22 i havent been able to get in-touch with) that a group is going around called g00ns.net and hacking and destroying people clans websites, forums and teamspeak servers. At the moment ours forums and teamspeak are completely gone and people are IP banned, accounts removed and all sorts. They are doing it extremly well and bouncing IP addresses all over the place, aswell as calling themselves the anti-clan etc People are advised to take a backup of anything they can and store it in a safe place ASAP incase you need it!! People wishing to join 22SAS are still welcome, just please bear with us while we try and get this sorted!! Thanks Th3D@wn =22SAS= Squadron Trooper, G Squadron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Infam0us 10 Posted April 29, 2007 This is what happened ... Hey guys, this is what happened Someone came on from g00ns.net with the name MurderSkillz (with R and SA flags) about 2 seconds after the last server admin left and it was just me and marius. This guy then - kicked everyone including the bot - deleted all the channels - make his spam channels - revoked chromes Server Admin when he came back to attempt to kick him - revoked my registration he then seems to have - got into forum admin - deleted all the boards - created this one After some investigation me and chrome found that - he port scanned chrome after --bouncing ip off me --then off japan --then off canada - logged into forums and maybe TS that way - using a program called TS Admin Client which allows you to be SA on a server without appearing logged in So please make yourself aware of it so it does'nt happen to you!

Pathy 0 Posted April 29, 2007 Looks like you guys got owned. This is the risk of running an open TS. It's script kiddies, nothing more, sucks when it happens but it's nothing to get worked up over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 2 Posted April 29, 2007 least it wasn't hacked by Ch@os - like Chris said, its a danger of having a public TS and forums - we've had the VCB forums hacked but not the TS server thankfully - sorry to hear it happened, but hopefully its a swift recovery Even if you're aware of it, it's hard to stop it - When our forums were hacked, our admin watched powerlessly as the guy made himself admin, removed all the existing rights and deleted the boards one by one - they know what they're doing unfortunately, even if they are script kiddies with nothing else to do.

Dwarden 1125 Posted April 29, 2007 otherway around they got to your sql via forum security hole and then gained all needed info about TS too due fact You use phpBB it's high chance thats what happened if there is any new TS vulnerability except that one with "mistake" in settings (where unwanted person may gain SA rights way to avoid is posted on TS forum) plz drop me PM p.s. my TIP > IF You can ... avoid phpbb ... better use IPB, vBulettin or similar ...

HamishUK 0 Posted April 30, 2007 Can we not report them to their host and have there little site shut down? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4 IN 1 0 Posted April 30, 2007 no that would only result into a larger scale of attack i think, if you want to finish them once and for all, i would say wipe them out b4 they even know it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebud 18 Posted April 30, 2007 So this is the modern version of the crap we did as kids back in the early 80's like driving by and smashing mailboxes, doing doughnuts in people's yards, etc. Man how times have changed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infam0us 10 Posted April 30, 2007 Indeed ... it only annoys me really that in all likelyhood if you see these people in rl they would'nt have half the courage that they claim to have. But what can you do ... no point in getting worked up about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebud 18 Posted April 30, 2007 Yeah, the whole idea of "cyber-vandalism" is rather odd to me. At least when I was a kid and we pulled the stunts we did, there was always the chance you could get shot at for trespassing, or the cops could come after you. Vandalism of this sort is about as cowardly as you can get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crashdome 3 Posted April 30, 2007 This is all very true, but you cannot clone a mailbox for nothing... you CAN, however, backup your data once a day. If there was anything I could ever not suggest enough... backup your stuff!!! Even if you lose a days/weeks worth of posts, articles, whatever... it's still better than starting all over again.

opteryx 1562 Posted April 30, 2007 A rather weak, immature and pathetic attempt at being bad ass They sure don't have much balls, I mean if you're going to vandalize something in the first place, at least have some balls to put your ass on the line, this is just hilarious hahaha.
