When I titled this message, I had no idea how true it would be. Someone used a common exploit to get into the admin portion of php-nuke. While I patch it, you'll notice a few things go up and down. Have no fear, all is safe again and nothing got hurt.
This spot used to say:
The site and some services such as email, will be offline for short periods this week as I migrate things to a Fedora box.','The bad news is that you may not be able to check for email or see the site at certain monents. Most email servers will try again to send you messages so if I keep the downtime to periods less than 5 hours you'll still get your email.The good part is the spammers usually only try once. Spam sent during the downtime will fail and they will mark your address as bad somewhere. thus they may not send to you again like a reputable source would. Poor man's Greylisting.
But someone used a bot to change it to:
Hacked By spyMASter &
SWmert
We are the guard of Turkish Republic
TurkHackerZ Hack Team
SecurityTeam
They got in from a known exploit that I should have patched already (silly me). I would have given them props on the front page, but the HTML they posted contained this tag:<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0"> It was painfuly obvious that the source was edited with Frontpage. Geez! 1ee7 and you're using Frontpage! Well anyway. Thanks for reminding me to patch the hole. Please learn HTML.
