So I hate dreamhost

We had to take this machine offline while we investigated the source of widespread website defacement. Fortunately we were able to determine that the machine was not completely compromised and are now in the process of cleaning up the mess that was made. We apologize for not providing information sooner but due to the sensitive nature of the situation we wanted to complete our investigation before disclosing details.

Update: the vulnerability has been confirmed as fixed (we had actually previously addressed it but this specific machine had become vulnerable after a reboot â€“ the cause of that has been corrected and will not be a cause for concern any longer). We are now in the process of cleaning up and our Abuse team will be contacting customers who were effected.

Update: due to the widespread effect of the attack we are in the process of developing a global fix that we can apply rather than fixing effected users individually

I'm sick of their constant down times and slow servers, but this is unacceptable. Everyone's FTP was compromised.

Does anyone here use dreamhost?
