Last
night the defacer Apocalypse broke into the
Microsoft UK web site (microsoft.co.uk) and
managed to upload a picture with the following
message "FREE RAFA - HACK IS NOT A CRIME", it
was still online at 10am (see http://www.microsoft.co.uk/Apocalypse.gif).
This defacer has been targeting US
institutions and the US government for months.
His defacements always contain a message of
support for the Venezuelian hacker Rafael
Nunez-Aponte who was arrested three months ago
in Miami, and is suspected of being part of the
"World of Hell" hacking crew.
Other notable defacements of Apocalypse
include Stanford University and US Navy web
sites (for example: http://www.zone-h.org/en/defacements/mirror/id=2493438/
), see the complete list here: http://www.zone-h.org/en/defacements/filter/filter_defacer=ApocalypseThis
time the break-in was certainly due to a
misconfiguration of the web server.
