uTorrent Forums Hacked, Passwords Compromised
Popular BitTorrent client uTorrent's forum, which has over 388,000 registered members and sees tens of thousands of visitors each day, has been hacked. TorrentFreak reports: The uTorrent team was alerted to the issue by one of their vendors earlier this week. While the vulnerability didn't originate at the uTorrent forums, it was indirectly compromised. "The vulnerability appears to have been through one of the vendor's other clients, however it allowed attackers to access some information on other accounts. As a result, attackers were able to download a list of our forum users," uTorrent writes. The security alert is posted in the forums but as far as we know users haven't been notified individually. There is no mention of the massive security breach on uTorrent and BitTorrent's social media accounts either.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
