Nuffnang Malaysia has been Hacked by Gaysec

Salam and hello everyone. I just got a news from Amanz regarding Nuffnang Malaysia website which has been hacked by Gaysec. Gaysec is probably a group of hacker or an individual which recently has leaked several users database from several well known websites such as TM Streamyx, Geng Blogger, CIMB and the latest one is Nuffnang Malaysia. Nuffnang Malaysia website is currently inaccessible and it has been placed into maintenance mode. If you didn’t know, Nuffnang is one of the largest blog advertising network in Malaysia and south east Asia, hence this incident would be great challenge for Nuffnang to ensure their website’s security is always at optimum level as well as to ensure their customers and users’ privacy are protected properly. This incident should be a good lesson to Nuffnang.

There is no official announcement from Nuffnang regarding this issue.

Update by Nuffnang Malaysia.

Update: Official community announcement by Nuffnang Malaysia regarding last night security breach.

It seems it takes a long time for Nuffnang ads in this blog to load and this ads loading issue has caused slow page loading for this blog. Hence, I’ve disabled all Nuffnang ads in this blog for a while.

p/s: It is good to know that Gaysec’s objective is not more than just to pointing out the security holes of the websites they have hacked, rather than damaging the system.
