Site News Short Downtime & Social Group Info

Hey everybody. As you might have noticed, we had some downtime lasting a little over an hour. There was a small security issue with our Social Groups add-on. I couldn't get on immediately so I took the board down, and a temporary fix has been applied.

Everything should be okay, but if you notice anything out of order, please post in this thread or otherwise contact me. Those who utilize Social Groups should be aware that, in order to fix it, I had to disable their moderation privileges within their social group. This will hopefully be a temporary fix as we look for a permanent solution to the problem.

If, in this time, you need threads moved, posts deleted, or any similar moderation, please just contact a Super Moderator or an Administrator and we'll get right on it for you. Likewise, if anyone finds anything they feel might be a security issue with the site, please message a member of staff immediately. We take the site's security very seriously and would like to be able to respond as soon as possible.

Special thanks to HearIess for reporting the problem and Nights for helping me research it.

Thanks guys,
Misty

Deleted; I can't move it from the forum to groups, sorry!

 

No worries. It was just a suggestion. Of course it looks like all but several posts were lost from that forum anyway. Or maybe there weren't that many to begin with >.< terrible memory.

Anyway, thanks Star ^^

 

I'm curious: what was the security issue?

 

People could move threads from the social forums into the actual forums, such as The Spam Zone.

 

Psh. It's not like any KHV members would abuse this-

Nevermind.
