Re: [Emergency ANN] Bitcoinica site is taken offline for security investigation

Who said the server was hacked?

That is interesting if true. Wonder how that got out.

Zhoutong. (By hacked, meaning that the password was compromised and it was accessed).

Yes, but was it the server password, the Bitcoinica administration password, the Rackspace management console password?
He wasn't clear, that's true.

Presumably the RS admin console password was retrieved via an email reset, allowing the cracker to then reset the root password on the cluster machines and then log in and fuck things up.

If that was what happened then it's not hard to imagine how they would get to the private keys of the deposit addresses lol

Also, why is bitcoinica redirecting to meatspin? WTF
Z, you have a lousy sense of humour
