UnderLoK Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) I did a search and don't see a post about it so I figured I would toss it up especially for the staff (guys like us obviously don't impact the site). Their network, usernames, and passwords were leaked. If anyone on the staff used the same password for both sites it would be wise to change it. I've had people trying to get into a couple of my accounts since Sunday and didn't know where it was coming from until today. If your a techi and care then read this http://blogs.forbes.com/firewall/2010/12/13/the-lessons-of-gawkers-security-mess/ DES encryption for password... fail...

UnderLoK Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 unreal just how outdated they were. i understand its tough to keep up but thats pretty bad It is, but like I said there, most sites only learn once they get hacked. I was just shocked they were using DES encrypted passwords. I used to run some big sites in the late 90's/early2K and learned my lessons there, but with how quick they sent out the notices about changing your password and the fact that the sites never went down leads me to believe they are going to get owned again. While Unix security is great the number one problem is that if it does get hacked the systems have to be rebuilt simply because there are far too many places to hide and with how quickly they said they have contained the problem it tells me they only think they found the holes. Looking through some of the stuff released made me laugh because it was obvious they haven't had to really deal with security at all.

n8ball2013 Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 they only found what they wanted them to find. Im willing to bet whoever did it still has access. they had too long to prepare if they had system access for months.

JEMT8 Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Why does this matter on a gossip website? Is there really sensitive information on there that if leaked would ruin some ones life? Quote formerly known as Jaylor Swift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderLoK Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) Why does this matter on a gossip website? Is there really sensitive information on there that if leaked would ruin some ones life? It's not the site, it's the people with accounts on it. Tons of feds, other site owners, etc. On a side note, Gawker is only part of the network. Gizmodo, Lifehacker, and the rest aren't gossip.
