What a battle. Nerd against script kitty. I think we might now have php5 installed or whatever. There was an exploit that was there Obviously. It's been toyed with for the past while and he knows it. We all know it. The site was slow and slower still, then strange errors and error messages that told the world too much about how the site works. They waited until they were organized enough to exploit it finally, possibly for fee from another site. Hey who knows. It's speculation. No holds barred. Nice fight though. We are all more secure now because of it. Each time someone exploits the site, they teach us a lesson and get stronger as a result. If they were smart, they would've kept it quiet and silently attacked at random for years . TuggingOnSupermans cape username was razzing DPR pretty bad in the threads, but they spoke some truth about the infrastructure being used here. At some point, you gotta replace the engine, even if its your baby. It's hard to keep up to updates and shit these days. You fix one thing and it opens another hole elsewhere. You need testers and a chief of security or something on staff. Consult and cross consult. Nobody ever criticized a general for calling in the marines to help. It's what they do. It's going to get a lot tougher in the future to solve these exploits. . It's a shame we are working our boss to death, but at some point he is going to have to trust more people or else suffer a heart attack. No joke. If he gets sick, we are done. You gotta wonder why he is doing this to himself, but he's a true giver and the most kindest, fairest pirate that ever lived. Nice work. (Bows down)Hero as always.
