A HACKER has claimed to have mounted a successful attack against the CNN website.

Reckz0r claimed to have extracted information from the US based 'news' company and posted four fake articles on its website.

He made the announcement about the attack on Twitter, following that up with a Pastebin post that included administrative usernames and encrypted passwords, along with a list of database tables. "Their systems are poorly-misconfigured, just like how NASA's DIRS is full of crap. CNN is no different from them, anyway. nuff' talkin' - Let the good ol' show begin," he said in a message.
