Remaining Vigilant: SWRP Vulnerability Exploited

This occurred again two or three times when accessing the website via mobile.

Approximate time was around 5-6 pm EST Yesterday. Was clicking link from Google to the website.

Additionally - Unable to click anything but hyperlinks on the website from Mobile. Buttons not working (Submit Modified Post for example.) The website is in Full Version mode - not Mobile. Using Chrome on Android platform. Don't think these are related but throwing that out there as it was working.

Just some FYI.

Yes. The code was found today, after our previous announcement. I'm looking for any instances of it happening from now on out - instances of it happening yesterday and prior are known and hopefully, resolved.

I have in the past seen weird ads come up either under sigs (I think it was or avatars) But they disappeared quickly. Not sure if this is something connected to it?

At about 9 (Pacific time) this morning I had a redirect, but it was on a mobile if thats helpful...

No problems, I'd rather know than not know and it be an issue.

This is our first legitimate hack, so the Admin team is sweatin' kinda furiously

They picked the wrong time of the year to try and make me sweat.

More than likely this is something that has been downloaded onto your computer. I had the same run in with a program called content explorer. That thing took awhile to get rid of. Started duplicating on me. Took hours, but I got it off my computer. If I were you I'd take a look at your files to see if you've got anything suspicious.

EDIT: Always remember, constant vigilance.

Thanks for keeping an eye out for us Tef!!!

I wanted to warn that I just had this happen to me about 10 minutes ago. I had initially assumed that I was infected with some sort of browser redirect virus, but I'm guessing now because of this that it mustn't actually be the case then. I'll run Hijack this in a little while, but I wanted to warn that this was happening to me, and it was happening through Bing. It didn't seem to influence any other site.

 

[Lurcano Car'dann]

Same problem occurred with me. I tried it as soon as I saw [member="Janus Viminal"] post. Some crazy shit going on. Also, will this affect you if you use private browsing?

 

[Cylus Jest]

I think I was redirected earlier.
I hit the back button pretty rapidly because the site name was quite unsavory, was on mobile so my network should still be safe I hope.

 

[Dazuto]

Can confirm. I was redirected last night.

 

[Laira Darkhold]

Yep, when i try to google Starwarsrp.net it redirects me and my anti-virus freaks out... Not the best thing. No problems with entering in the URL or accessing through bookmarks though.

 

[Jsc]

Yeah. Google just redirected me to a smexy hookups site too. Rawr. Didn't even have to search through my 'Favorites List' this time. Google so sassy. >.<''

 

[Arage Bao]

Got redirected last night.

 

[Darth Carolus]

It hath returned.

 

[Velok the Younger]

Yup.

 

[Tefka]

Thanks for the heads up, I'm looking into it.
