Hello,

upon logging onto my site today, i was greeted with a message "hacked by" some turkish retard.

I decided to investigate some more, and found this... This is the guy that hacked my site... he takes part in a sad little competition to see how many sites he can hack.

As you can see.... hes hacked quite a bit of forums.... quite a few seem to be smf.

I thought i would let you guys know just incase its a bug in smf or something. I also use the joomla hacks smf bridge.... but i dont think its that as  the other hacked sites arent using joomla. I suspect it may be SMF, as my joomla is fine... nothing seems to have been touched in that.

It looks like they edited the board name of the first board to some javascript that will redirect to their site. You should disable javascript and fix the board title. I would change your password. Also please file a security report here: http://www.simplemachines.org/about/security.php

01042, what version of SMF were you running? It appears that a lot of the hacked forums were running old versions of SMF.

Doubt it's as bad as InvisionFree. You can hijack admin sessions if you know what you're doing D:
