Hacked through FlashChat integration plugin for vb 3.5.2
 

We've been hacked and our database screwed by an apparent vulnerability of the FlashChat integration with vb. Is there an update of the hack with the vulnerability fixed? Any help during this trying time would be very much appreciated.

This is interesting.
I caught it just in time.
[Mon Sep 4 15:20:11 2006] [error] [client 200.82.226.80] File does not exist: /home/username/public_html/forum/chat//inc/cmses/aedatingCMS2.php
I would have been hacked if that file was still there.

Indeed, I get these "errors" about 20 times a day since Friday last week.

Different ip address?

Wish these punks would find something better to do.

Of course, all Turkish IP's. Today they tried about 70 times! Not bad.

Just found on zone-h! It seems that some other FlashChat files are also insecure!!! Thanks God I have removed this piece of you-know-what.

I think VB must do a IP range ban all these turkish delights I lost i whole day try to fix this and it was on saturday my most busy day at my forum :hurt:
I blame the VB Stuffsf or this, something like this should be mail to all vb members and all the forum members after all this is not a free software we did not just get this bicuz it looks good we go it since the name of the software is gr8
