    How secure is Vbulletin software?

    I noticed the forum just went down with a message, "Hacked By Coldzer0"

    Some of us are worried about the VBulletin software being vulnerable to attack. Can you comment on this?

    it seems there can always be some vulnerability from time to time...esp with such rapidly developing software...im sure a patch will become available soon and that will be one less hole...

      Actually, this vulnerability seems to be more serious. We are talking about shell access to the host that allows remote code execution. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq549n6fi6I

        Appears to have been a server issue. It is being looked into. Closing this because we don't discuss potential vulnerabilities in public.
