Quote:Apparently the RIAA is so busy suing consumers that they forgot to hire a decent programmer. With a simple SQL injection, all their propaganda has been successfully wiped from the site.

It started out on Reddit, where a link to a really slow SQL query was posted. While the Reddit users were trying to kill the RIAA server, someone allegedly decided to up the ante and wipe the site’s entire database.

The comments on Reddit are only speculation so far. Based on the username, which was apparently “webReadOnly”, it might not have been setup correctly, or someone could have found another way to delete the content form the site.

Another possibility is that the RIAA themselves removed the content temporarily. This would seem unlikely, as a better solution would be to take it entirely offline to fix the bigger problem. While they could fix a small vulnerability like this in a matter of seconds, the chances are it’s not an isolated problem.

As pointed out by Haywire, playing around with the urls a bit can return some funny results. It is pretty easy to make the RIAA link to The Pirate Bay for example.

For now it sure does look like all the content has been wiped from the RIAA homepage. Let’s hope they have backups, or not.

I'm all for anything that pisses those megalomaniac arseholes off, it's a good day :)

Pirates strike back :)

It would be better if the hacks did something useful.

Like deleting logs, names of future defendants, etc.

I know.

I'm saying they should have focused their attack somewhere important.

Then again, wee're not really sure if its been attacked...

It's not a deliberate attack, they found a weakness in there setup and exploited it. It started out as just a SQL injection DDOS really and then someone got elevated privileges.

lmao this is funny
argh the pirates strike
