Forums Belonging to Gizmodo Breached: - Mad-Architect - 10-01-2019                                                  Two forums belonging to Gizmodo, ITerian Forum and Comodo Forums, were breached by hackers when a recently disclosed  VBulletin vulnerability. Gizmodo has not made public which of the two forums actually breached, but what they have disclosed what data exposed: login usernames, name, email addresses, hashed passwords, last IP address, and some details related to user's social media accounts, but that only affected a limited number of users.                                                                               It is also apparent that Gizmodo failed to apply the patch that developers from vBulletin released, which in turn allowed hackers an easier breach.                            That was the news folks, have a good day, and stay safe out there.                           ---Mad-Architect
