Syrian Electronic Army leaked 1 million user accounts for Forbes

Το Forbes επιβεβαίωσε ότι η χακτιβιστική ομάδα Syrian Electronic Army παραβίασε την πλατφόρμα δημοσίευσης της ιστοσελίδας τους. Εκτός από την πρόσβαση στην κονσόλα ς του WordPress οι hackers, as we mentioned yesterday, they also gain access to certain Twitter accounts. Today, however, following a Forbes announcement on Facebook, it became known that the Syrian Electronic Army team also gained access to the readers' data on the popular journalistic website.

“Οι διευθύνσεις ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου των χρηστών μας ενδέχεται να έχουν διαρρεύσει. Οι κωδικοί πρόσβασης ήταν κρυπτογραφημένοι, αλλά για προληπτικούς λόγους, ενθαρρύνουμε τους αναγνώστες και τους συνεργάτες του Forbes για να αλλάξουν τους κωδικούς πρόσβασής τους στο us, we also encourage them to change them on other websites as well if they use the same password elsewhere,” Forbes says on Facebook.

"We have notified the authorities of what happened. We take this issue very seriously and apologize to members of our community for this breach. "

Initially, the Syrian Electronic Army team attempted to sell the e-mail addresses and passwords they obtained from Forbes. However, an hour later, they announced that the data should be published freely on the Internet.

Before ώρες, οι hackers ανέβασαν ένα αρχείο που περιέχει δεδομένα από τους 1 εκατομμύριο χρήστες του Forbes. Τα δεδομένα όπως αναφέραμε περιέχουν ονόματα χρηστών, διευθύνσεις ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου και κρυπτογραφημένους κωδικούς πρόσβασης. Τα δεδομένα έχουν ανέβει όπως αναφέρουν οι SEA σε έναν “ server.”

This probably means that it will be very difficult for Forbes to download them. The server's IP address to which the data has been uploaded is 91.227.222.39. The server, located in the United Kingdom, has been used in the past by hackers when they deformed the homepage of marines.com.
