CGQ web site has been hacked - 2007/07/30 21:12
I have to notice that our CGQ web site has been hacked last Saturday (July, 28). I have no idea why did our web site became a target! Unfortunately I didn't have the web site full backup. So it took time to re-build it from scratch and restore the web site DB from backup.
So it's almost ready for use now. I have investigated the way hackers did that intrusion. They used forum file upload option. That way they uploaded code which allowed them to replace some web site scripts in a folder by new ones.
I increased the web site security level. I hope it will never happen again. Moreover the new version of the web site will be backed up regularly.
Sorry for a temporary inconvenience.
73!
