THN Report : ACER hacked because of their own stupidity !

Yes ! you read right , ACER hacked because of their own stupidity. Yesterday we report that Pakistan Cyber Army hacked Acer Europe Server and 40,000 Users Data, Source Codes & Server Compromised .


Today we investigate on this and try to find out that how exactly Pakistan hackers got the FTP access . Here in above image you can see the screenshot taken by us from a ASP forum of Acer-Euro. Acer ASP Support Team posted some Hot Fix Release and give FTP access to other members , so that they can download that Hot Fix. This was posted on January 11, 2008 . Pakistan hackers got this and explore the FTP and In « PB » directory they get « Country Wise Customer Data.zip » file, which include the 40000 users data managed according to country wise. 


Now this Data breach is only because of ACER’s own Stupidity. The link of Forum post is « http://asp.acer-euro.com/FORUM/Topic472-8-1.aspx« .
