The forums were defaced yesterday by an Indonesian Hacktvist group.
This was not a targeted attack. A vBulletin exploit was discovered and used by malicious groups to deface random forums.
Even the latest stable version of vBulletin was affected and their team quickly began working on an urgent patch.
We are now running the patched version.
No data has been lost.
All permissions are reset.
To be extra safe I'll be migrating to a separate cloud vpn.
If anyone saw the vandalised site and now feels lost without the hacker's bizarre music running on loop, here it is! https://g.top4top.net/m_1321is7691.mp3
