Hacked?? Why the heck lah..

What a way to start my Friday morning!

I was waiting for my morning bus when I received a sms from Suituapui.

“… tell bongkersz that his blog has been hacked by two ppl. Koders and 3xTorT are the fella… from daniel liew“

Apparently Daniel Liew told Suituapui to pass the message to me. Thanks STP and Daniel. I was on my way so I asked Life4hire to check for me. He later told me, only Cpanel couldn’t be accessed, the rest no problem. I was actually quite calm and relax over the thing because I just did a backup of my entries and database yesterday. Worst comes to worst, I can reinstall everything again. I have no idea when they ‘hacked’ my blog but if you tried to access my blog this morning, you probably see something like this:

Leandre sent me the print screen of the defacers’ signature. Cool eh? Love the image.

 

Luckily the ‘hax0rs’ just redirected the url and didn’t touch the rest. The database and everything still intact. I called up the server’s admin and he gave me a new password for my Cpanel and advised me to have different passwords for my WordPress database and Cpanel. Thanks Mizan! He deleted the index.php file, so I went and downloaded the latest version of WordPress, uploaded the index.php file and waalaaaa!

The Flaccid Mind is back and running! Just did an upgrade to the latest WordPress version, changed my passwords, backup everything.

It is Friday! This is not going to spoil my day! Happy Merry weekends people!

Moral of the story: Do your backups as often as you can! Right, Nono?

ps: Sootsprite‘s quote – If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame. Er, who should I blame?

pss: I hope it has nothing to do with my previous post. I was talking about shitting birds.. what?

  1. ahahaha
    blog glamer mmg org dengki la weh!
    miahahahaha
    but it’s good la u backup ur blog regularly

    ps: blame the hackers, blame the society, blame the gov, blame everyone. does that makes me a punk? hell no~ ahaha

  2. Glamer ke aku? Huahahahahaha!

    It’s a good habit. I also do this – copy everything I type somewhere else, or just Ctrl+C before I publish, or post comment. Learn from bad experience. Many times, written long comments/posts when clicked ‘submit’ something wrong, everything was gone!

  4. At least they just redirect. Mine was hacked by some so called ‘TURKISH HACKERS’ last month. They defaced everything and install viruses in my server.

    It took two full days for my host to clean install everything. Gee.. I don’t know why they do it.

    The only thing they get by doing that to me is – HATRED.

  6. Sorry to hear that bro.

    Mine also hacked by Turkish hackers, or so they claimed. Defaced, not so bad. Viruses.. that’s mean!

    Guess the only thing we can do is to have backups.. backups… and backups. Nothing is hack proof.. Sigh!

  16. This morning I got an SMS from bong,

    “my blog got hacked!”

    Ah… petty things, continue with my sleep. HAHAHAHA.

    It’s either you are popular enough to get hacked or mercumaya has got some serious holes unpatched.

  18. Er.. I think the latter.

    I was sms-ing you, thought probably you yet went to sleep so you could check it for me. Because, most of the times, either you are yet to sleep or just went to sleep and still sleeping at that time. Nocturnal creature. HAHA!

  21. hua hua… entahlah apa kepuasan yang bong maksudkan.. bong ini mmg suka menulis dengan maksud yang tersirat.. dan terpaksa aku membuat andaian..

    andaian 1: bong puas dengan aksi doggie
    andaian 2: bong gembira kepuasan dapat diberi
    andaian 3: bong puas, tektik memikat menjadi..

    huhu.. sorry la jika andaian silap.. sbb dlm kepala aku.. awek.. duit.. awek.. duit jaa.

  35. hahah kelakar… buat back-up pun if sik pandei upload, sik guna… huhuhuhu… lame bena jak 🙁
    .. i dont know what went wrong la tu my database.. hmmm…

    anyways, glad to know that you didnt lose anything.. 😉
