I have no idea how they could have gotten access to my database, but going to try to harden things. This is definitely a clever hack. We should continue to try to figure out how it was done.
The sons of bitches managed to hit every wordpress 3+ site on my server but interestingly not some older wordpress-version sites.
While I would like to repair the sites, I am wondering if anyone here wants to take some kind of action against the owner of basicpills.com. Can we take legal action? Or how about a DDoS in response? I don’t know, I just think they shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it.
Seems to me that the website basicpills.com has some serious answering to do for this BS. How dare they and who do they think they are? Anyone have any thought on how to retaliate?
They somehow completely replaced all the hrefs, including links and anchor text, in my posts with links back to their own site.
They have clearly done this to a lot of other sites.
