Hello, I have a vBulletin forum (3.8.4) and today my forum has been hacked.

Someone changed all of the user to admin and change all name to OWNEDBYBURNINGFIRE

I got that screenshot by a friend of BurningFire.


Mod Installed

- Better postbit with thanked phrases and border
- Cyb - Advanced Forum Statistics
- Cyb - ChatBox
- Cyb - Visitors in Last X Hours
- Quick Auto Image-Resize (Posts & Signature)
- Sidebar Column (Disable)



Someone can help me to fix it please. Thank you.

First thing I would do if I were in your shoes, is restore your latest database backup. After you do that, disable all plugins until you can identify which one is potentially being exploited (if in fact it is due to one of the mods). Also change yopur password for admin accounts, and lastly, double check the config.php file to make sure no users can run queries from within admincp.

And look through your access_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host) and see if you can find how they got in.
