phpBB alert

Postby Apollo » Tue Mar 21, 2006 11:12 pm

The SANS Institute's Internet Storm Center (ISC) noted that a bot going by the name "FuntKlakow" has registered on thousands of phpBB forums. Speculating, ISC analyst Marcus Sachs noted that the bot's owner(s) may be preparing to exploit a zero-day vulnerability against the popular php bulletin board software.

A Google search for "FuntKlakow" suggested that the bot may have created accounts on more than 36,000 forums. Some of the forums show messages such as "Oh, how nice" and "Wow, I didn't think of that."
