Somebody hacked Duncan Hunter's site

[Omnis]

Yeah, looks like it could be a publicity stunt.

It's not a publicity stunt. The defacer has a zone-h profile with over 800 other sites he's defaced. And TurkStorm is a group of about 10 little Turkish script kiddie wanna-be hackers.

And it's not exactly what I'd call a "hack" either. It's a relatively simple SQL injection and his programmer should be fired for allowing it to happen. It's a very basic security hole that anyone with experience should have known to patch.

Assuming that the programmer has a backup, his site *should* be back to business as usual as soon as the programmer wakes up and turns on his computer.

Alls fair in Love and War. Hunter wants War with these people soooo, it was fair play...........and funny.

Hunter wants to start a war with Turkey?

His site is down, but I could still pull up the page via google's cache:

They just fixed it on the main page. Still there on the links though. (http://www.gohunter08.com/shownews.asp)

That's really sad that SQL Injection still works these days.. It's called a single-quote.. USE IT or better yep, use parameterized queries (although they're such a pain in the butt)..

They just fixed it. Now to fire that silly programmer... lol

lol. Watch thespoof.com get wind of this and have some fun at RP supporters' expense.

This is hilarious. Last night RP closed with awesome donation totals, and this morning, I get to see a war-monger's site defaced by a script kiddie. Awesome way to start October. lol'ing.

and is it just me or is that not the bin laden tape of
the campaign so far?

the best part is Hunter's little thermometer graphic.

classic.

How can Hunter guarantee security for America if he can't secure his own web site?
