H4X0RD!

Posted by andrew on Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

A few weeks ago, adbots managed to replace 100 of my blog posts with hidden ads, targeted at search engines. The breach occurred due to a vulnerability in WordPress which allowed the content of certain posts to be replaced via SQL injunctions. Now I’ve updated WordPress on all my sites which used it and replace all but three posts thanks to a recent server backup (well done, Stephen!).
