vvti.net hacked

i use the same password for everything...SHIT lol oh well i changed em no big deal. i dont rly care about the email address that i sign up for forums with

Just changed mine. It was only a matter of time before it got hacked, being an abandoned site for a while.

Since pretty much everyone on that site is on here, I'm just gonna try to cancel my account.

I like my reputation on there. I have over 3000 posts. It's all going to go to waste. LOL

if you succed, let me know how.

I didn't know there was a way to delete your account. You can ask a mod to erase it maybe.

yay, maybe now ppls would stop going to that retarded site.

Just because they hacked it, it does not mean they have your password

vbulletin uses MD5 to encrypt the passwords, so even if they got the whole MySql DB (highly unlikely) they can not see what your password is.

I just went there and it seems OK. Where is it hacked?

You mean by brute force or dictionary attack? But who has the time to do that? If anything it would be the admin account, and even getting that one is not going to yield all the users passwords. I really do not care about that site, but it is hard to pass up blanket statements like "change all your passwords! the site has been hacked!" As you know vbulletin is one of the least hacked bulletin board software packages out there, but I can see that vvt-i's copy is pretty outdated, but even version 3.0 was practically hacker proof, and even if hacked it is still hard to get the password database.

I must be blind, but I do not see where it was hacked. the post number may be a simple database corruption which may well be since it is documented here: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=19896 and it is also the largest prime number, which may well mean a bad DB.

Can anyone access User CP on vvti? because I can't

My guess is that the forum databasaes are in dire need of maintenance. Since it is not being maintaned, god knows what may be happening with them.

where is the owner of that retarded forum?

good question...it's not like he cares about it.

The owner of vvti has fallen off the face of the earth and so have all the mods minus me.

OK fess up, how far into the hack are you already? Just put a forwarding page to here!

There seems to have been a slight problem with the vvti.net Forums database.
