Description Adrien Beau 2004-12-25 21:58:39 UTC
Version:           1.0-beta8 (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Slackware Packages

The aKregator website has been defaced by the "Santy" network worm that uses vulnerabilities in Apache, PHP and/or phpBB to spread itself. The aKregator RSS feed is dead.

The website software should be upgraded, backups should be restored. Search on Google for "santy" or "NeverEverNoSanity" for more information about the worm.

more or less restored
Comment 2 Adrien Beau 2004-12-26 15:15:34 UTC
The "Complete Story" links in the RSS feed are now incorrect. They point to http://localhost/, which is obviously wrong.
Comment 3 Sashmit Bhaduri 2004-12-28 01:43:26 UTC
rss feed fixed
