NICE WORK SCOTT for getting a screenshot of the hack!!!

What a lame-a$$ message. Hell, it doesn't even say anything cool like, "Death to Capitalist American Infidel Pigs" or "Nissan Drivers are the Great Satan".

Kuwaiti hackers = weaksauce. :)

this kids name is a book in the bible and the passage i have typed below. my thought is that he is from USA. I will need all the information our NICO leaders have on the attack to our website to further any more investigation...thanks and i would just like to say its about time i helped NICO and im ready to roll......this mother fuc$%* will pay! [email protected]

1Be merciful to me, O God, for men htly purseue me; all day long they press their attack.2My slanderers pursue me all day long; many are attacking me in their pride.3When I am afraid, I will trust you.4In God,whose word I praise,inGod I trust;I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?5All day long they twist my words'they are always plotting to harm me.6They conspire,they luck.they watch my steps eager to take my life.7On no account let them escape;in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.8Record my lament;list my tears on your scroll are they not in your record?9Then my enemies will turn back when I call for help. By this I wil know that God is for me.10In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise11ingod I trust;I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?12I am under vows to you, O God; I will present my thank offerings to you.12For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling that I may walk before God in the light of life.

Here is some of the information on the hacker.

It took him eight solid hours to hack into the 'nissanin' account. Once he got into an administrator account he had a field day. Here is some of the log file from vbulletin.

'nissanin' DELETED!!!

20319 nissanin08:34, 17th Jul 2004 usergroup.php remove usergroup id = 9 195.69.143.46

The hacker was in KUWAIT. Here's the ISP provider information for his IP address:

I'm not sure who the ORIGINAL member was named "nissanin", but that username had been registered for quite some time....

It was the first registered member by date and as an admin in the members list I remember seeing it and wondering who it was.

The nissanin account was the original account name that Nancy set up so that me, her, and rex could log into the admin panel before we launched the site. Me and nancy both used it so we could adjust and modify the forums to get it looking good before we announced the launch of the current website. We kept the username around in case our admin names got deleted, then we'd have a backup user name to log into and check things out.

He gained access to an admin account then used that power to delete portions of our user database. He basically gained all the power that any of our admins have.

I personally am not one step ahead of you....our webmaster is though. And like Greg said, we're not sure of all the info he has, because what we showed you was all we have received from him. I do know that our webmaster (Todd) is working hard to make this guys miserable life even less enjoyable.

Is this the latest version of vBulletin?? There are a couple security issues with previous ones, im pretty sure you can use the search feature and inject an SQL query that will return the password for an account.. so if he was finally able to get the account number he could have used the exploit and gotten the password..

also:inetnum: 195.69.140.0 - 195.69.143.255netname: ES-Kuwaitdescr: EasternSolutionsdescr: Satellite service provider, Kuwaitcountry: KWadmin-c: MA1650-RIPEtech-c: MA1650-RIPEstatus: ASSIGNED PImnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-PI-MNTmnt-by: AS6661-MNTmnt-by: AMS-MNTmnt-lower: RIPE-NCC-HM-PI-MNTmnt-routes: AMS-MNTnotify: [email protected]changed: [email protected] 20030305source: RIPE

... satellite or dialup ??

Anywho.. if it took him 8 hours the only thing I can think of is he was slowly going through and trying the sql injection.. you enter a # for the username and then it will return a password.. but you have no idea what account has what access so you'd have to go through them one at a time..
