I would to tell you that profithost is not secure at all, they got hacked several times, I will post proof later, I don't have it right now because I am not at home atm Cheers
OK, so not to be an asshole or anything - NOT! But just who in their right FUCKING mind is givin' this fuckhead of an anal-rape of so-called webhost the kind of ratings on this forum that allow them to stay in business?!? This kind of BULLSHIT shouldn't be allowed to exist. PERIOD. Why is it a universal constraint that all the fuckups are able to actually prosper by simply continuing to exist?! All emotion aside, Profithost is the WORST webservice I have EVER encountered in my 30 yrs. of internet usage and computing manipulation (from '77 on). YES. I was given a FREE lifetime webhosting package. YES. I'm a first-time personal domain webmasterso that means I have to rely on my webhost to at least give me the leeway of a little safety while I figure out what the ins and outs of my cPanel GUI (DirectAdmin) are so I can take the APPROPRIATE steps of securing all folders/applications/scripts/etc. I DIDN"T EVEN GET THE TIME TO DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thx...thanks alot. And now I have to hear from another post this thread that this profitless hassle has been hacked several other times before (uh...darknetic, can you PLEASE post that proof ASAP whenever you manage to get back to your machine, thanks!). URRRRRRRRRRRRGHHUH. I'm sick to my fucking stomach right now. I have to now - Oh, yeah Profit|Jacob,pay real close attention to the litany of the human cost of you not having your game locked down - point my domain away from the current nameservers, call up my domain registrars and host with them (more $$$ to spend that I don't have), then reinstall my backups and try to stop the publication of multiple promos for the website, then write my personal/business contacts back to inform them of my professional embarrassment, blow two phatties while I lick my mental wounds and harden up so I can catch that Inshalah hackfucktard so I can give him a legal beating that his whole family back in Morocco is gonna feel all the way down to their hashpipe smokin' asses. Oh, and just to start my own public healing process, we puttin' it ALL out there; Hacked By : MiraTome M0r0CC@N Defacer No Called Me:B9i@Hotmail.Com </B> Greetz for : All Members Hacking TruThs Thx medi0m-_-_-hackz Bigg Fuck To All Your Servers Is Bad Any Server You buy I will hack Inshalah Live Morocco And Muslims This is the very public face of my professional humiliation (MWAAAH, MWWWAAAAAHHH!). You see what I'm talkin' about Pro$hit|Faker? Dukes, I'ma call you out in public on this one. Web 2.0 is the beginning of your end, sir. I guarantee it. You have reaped the digital whirlwind on this one. I can't believe you guys are all broke-ass pimp lookin' on this shit. Because, OBVIOUSLY, either these Moroccan Defacer crew people have something against you and your network, or they just know that you ain't keepin' the digital assflap shut, so they can rape you @ will. Either way, all the inhabitants of your server pay the cost in lost productivity of their individual web projects (and me? I'm engaged in ENTERPRISE) as well as the mental suffering of seeing their work ruined by some neanderthalic nincompoops. And you wonder why I'm snappin' off on your ass in public?! I'm not making this personal Profit|Jacob - it's with all professionality that I'm ass-rippin' you to yer fuckin' face, pal. You think I want to do ten more times the work now to get back to where I was before I was defaced?! You must be outta your rabbit-assed mind, foolio. SO, since the package was free, but now I have a domain squatter on my hands, I'm forced to abandon MY OWN webspace to return to the amazing safety of my subdomain - BTW, THE best free host on the web(for size/security/ease-of-use/with CHEAP space upgrades/etc) - @ 110MB.COM. I'm sorry, chief, but this is truly UNACCEPTABLE.
I dont understand the anger of these people because servers are getting hacked. We have been hacked before but we have never lost ONE customer file. And neither did we lose anything this time. A restoration process just takes a bit time and as discussed before we will have it solved soon. Go ahead and be angry about hackers. You will be angry alot more in your life because even the largest BANKS get hacked. Miratome is a DEFACER. He has defaced over 18000 servers in the Netherlands alone THIS YEAR. And yes, TKY_publishing, we are not new in this business and we have done some research about the hacker. Because he is a proven criminal it is legal to post his information here: Private information about the hacker: (feel free to go to any police office worldwide) --- CUT. PLEASE PM FOR THE PRIVATE INFO !! --- We might not be able to protect ourselves against 0day exploits (everyday new exploits come out, no one can simply respond quick enough) but we sure are able to do research.
lol? 18 000 servers o.0 Are you sure that Netherlands have 18 000 servers ? here is proof(I found that pic on some forum)
Yes he is responsible for the defacement of over 18000 servers in the Netherlands. And yes, Leaseweb networks for example by itself has allready 11000 servers. There are 48 dc's and over 7000 providers in the Netherlands. The Amsterdam internet exchange is the largest exchange in the world and because of that is also targeted the most. http://www.ams-ix.net/
lol, I know that guy and he didn't "hack" 18000 servers, maybe 4-5... so don't lie now + you got hacked with that local root exploit http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/5092 How to protect your server? simple, just update your kernel ./cheers
He hacked several other hosts in the Netherlands with I know. He claims himself he has hacked even more. But you are right, we did find him pretty fast. As well I want to pinpoint no one exploited our root. It was done by an injection into all index.html index.php and index.tpl files. The screenshot you posted is from nov 30 2007.. The only thing this causes is a hell of a lot of work on potting the index files back.
We are nearly finished with the restore process. Might I add the fact that all existing clients are getting 6 months of free hosting!
It look's like Defacer has something personal going on with Jacob, as he mentions And Jacob is not exactly known for being nice to others, but more like fuck up anyone he can!
It would have been sites not actual servers. That's what the deface sites report... As far as the exploit you claim the screenshot was from nov 30 2007, but that was when the kernel was last compiled in that screenshot. I believe that kernel was vulnerable to the vmsplice exploit so that screen shot was at least from February. The exploit would make it possible for someone to run commands from root which would allow them to mass replace say index.* with their own for example.
Hackers are irritating to all. But Freddy we all know your hosting is even worse Profit|Jacob is actually a very nice person to talk to.
I can send you more information about the real exploit if you want, but as you might understand I am not risking other hosts as well. As soon as the fix has been completed we can publish the results.
I think most people know this about you you dont create 6 companies in 5 months without a reason. Just go and do your job because wiree is not exactly a reliable beacon (either). We are in business since march 2006 and this is the first big problem with our servers. Just allow us to solve it.
Well, don't talk about shit you dont know anything about How can your hosting be more realiable then Wiree if you keep getting hacked all the time eh?
As soon as your hosting gets bigger you will see people trying exploits on you too. As well we have been hacked only 2 times since march 2006, and this really is nothing special. The only problem is our techs take a little more time to restore this time.
When you compile and run that exploit you have a full ssh access... you can steal /etc/shadow and try to crack all accounts on that server also, you can delete everything, /home, /root, /etc @jacob, the best thing you can do is `rm -rf /` lol ./stay safe
