SCO.com Defaced

Posted by Hemos on from the stop-submitting-this dept.

A whole slew of readers wrote:"According to an Image on the SCO website they own all our code and we shall pay them all our money. (found at Heise online (german IT news). " Yes, I'm sure this will help the whole legal case; defacement has always been such a valued piece of input in court *cough*.

    In case SCO ever gets around to fixing their site, a screenshot I took of the affected site is available here.

      No, hackers break plenty of laws: see DMCA.

      Crackers are malicious. Hackers do there work more in the pursuit of knowledge.

  3. Twice in one day. by Amiga+Lover · · Score: 5, Informative

    Earlier in the day the lead story was asking for 256billion in payments from Microsoft, as SCO had found UNIX code in all versions of Windows.

    Then that disappeared, but the graphic remained.

    "hacked by realloc()"

    "realloc()" is the guy that did the hack. His tag was on the RedHat page on the SCO site last night before he obviously thought up something more amusing ;)

    JFIF means it's in JPEG File Interchange Format.

    Adobe means it was created with an Adobe product.

    Ducky is there because certain Adobe employees are obsessed with rubber ducks.

    Did anyone other than me not notice when this was "announced" here on Slashdot in the e17 story?

    Here.

    Seems not to have gotten much attention, but it show's that kiddies can't help but crow, even anonymously.

  7. Re:What changed? by pjt33 · · Score: 2, Informative

    The words "Hacked by realloc(" in the "We own all your code" image suggest that someone broke into the server. Dunno what changes they made besides adding "Hacked by realloc(" to the image, though.

  9. What about the fake story? by stevey · · Score: 3, Informative

    This was covered at The Register earlier today.

    I'm suprised nobody mentioned the fake story which was inserted into the SCO homepage.

    This screenshot is a mirror of the article on the SCO page.

    Strings says the image was made with Adobe. So it's either a windows user, or one of the guys from Disney.

  14. Groklaw down....Counter-attack? by sepluv · · Score: 2, Informative
    Groklaw.net is down and says:
    Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't create a new thread (errno 11). If you are not out of available memory, you can consult the manual for a possible OS-dependent bug in /usr/local/wwwcache/groklaw-private/system/databas es/mysql.class.php on line 108

    Maybe SCO have attacked Groklaw in order to get their own back (or maybe they attacked themselves and Groklaw because they were bored).
