Yeah, It was probally owned because its running an old version of PHP-Nuke. I really doubt someone like that owned it because of a OS X flaw.
Agreed, Netcraft is reporting that is is running Linux with UNIX Apache...so I am not even sure it is running Apple software, but it proves the beautiful points that having a secure OS is only part of the battle, a vulnerable application on a good OS is just as bad...which doesn't seems to work will with the "I am a mac and therefore I am secure" idea floating around the apple circles. It is funny that it is defaced because this is one of the "links" on the SANS top 20 for Mac Security. -Todd _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
