photobucket hacked
« on: June 17, 2008, 04:25:30 PM »
I was just noticing the massive lack of images on the net and when I was sent a link to a photobucket account I found this

... ve NeTDevilz yeniden sahnede

Bizi hatırlayan var mı ?  Unutulduğumuzu düşündük ve tekrar hatırlatmaya karar verdik  !

No problem with my Photobucket account or hosted images.  Are you sure that wasn't just a malicious link?

Well, upon further research  (better known as a quick google search) ;), it seems there was a problem a few hours ago but it's mostly taken care of now.

If I try to go to www.photobucket.com, I get redirected to:
http://www.atspace.com/dedicated-web-server-hosting-domain-articles-news/index.html

Which says:

IMPORTANT! Photobucket.com problem read here:
Last night Photobucket.com DNS at register.com was hacked by malicious people that are trying to compromise our business!
We are in no way affiliated with such bad deeds and cooperate with photobucket in capturing these individuals.
They have pointed the domain photobucket.com to an account hosted on our systems!
We have blocked that and photobucked techs have restored the domain pointing to its original location!
ALL account information and pictures on photobucket.com are OK, please have patience!
Unfortunately the complete DNS replication usually takes 24-48 hours and during this time caches DNS records might still point to us!
The normal operation of Photobucket is restored and as soon as the replication is complete there should be no further such issues!
We would like to emphasize that we are in now way responsible for what happens with photobucket and all users bumping across our systems!
We are a legitimate web hosting company operating since 2003 and in no way tolerate such hacking attempts!
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at abuse@zettahost.com!
Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Well photobucket is still being hacked by the netdevils... I'm amazed this keeps going on and photobucket only had a very tiny blurb about it on their site buried in the forums (after users started commenting on it)  Not very professional of photobucket.com, glad I use flickr! (I'm sure it could happen to them too, I just hope they would handle it better.

Here's a little help for those still having problems.
(it explains how to flush your DNS cache)

http://www.thatdanny.com/2008/06/18/cant-access-photobucket-follow-these-steps/

The hackers used a form of DNS poisoning.  you can read about it here...
