Billabong Hacked Again, Hackers Claim to Have Obtained 37,000 Account Details
Hackers from Goatse Security – the ones who claimed to have breached the official website of Oprah Winfrey around one week ago – say they’ve stolen “valuable information” from the systems of BillaBong, a popular casual clothing and sportswear manufacturer.
“We goatsesec hold valuable information from the Billabong database, we recently accessed the database from a PHP security flaw and figured that we'd exploit it,” the hackers wrote.
“Also, more than 37,000 users are at risk due to this attack, we have a little spoiler for you, hours from now or even DAYS you will see the damage that can be done to a website because they cannot secure themselves.” The “spoiler” consists of around one dozen usernames and password hashes, including ones that belong to the website’s administrators.
