I'm a hacker - AMA

Do you mind sending me mysql_guesscred.sh? I'd like to test my databases old password. This thread did get me to upgrade the password to something much longer, and I'm going to look into using a key certificate instead now. Email kopf1988 at gmail if willing.

Why is a thread like this on an Anime forum? This kind of post belongs in a technology forum but this kind of behavior is like those 12 year olds who claims they are hackers yet they just DoS/DDoS by using pre-made softwares such as LOIC. Not trying to disrespect or anything.

Sephiroth it doesn't work unless you had MySQL port open in iptables. So if port 3306 wasn't accessible you were good, also you had to be using MySQL 4.4 or lower. It used a vulnerability in the password() function used for generating admin password. If you were using 4.4 or lower at one point I'll happily send it along. As far as what I've seen you have pretty good security, not not a whole lot of open ports that don't need to be open relatively up to date webservers, and certainly since you're not using IIS or Apache, at least on the front end. See, most sites I hacked are PHP based and usually based around CMS such as Joomla! And stuff. I'm not a master at it or anything I just know a lot of exploits in PHP and MySQL. Since this site is rails, there's very little I would be able to do of I wanted to. If you're worried about brute force attacks here is a far, far more efficient script which I don't use because nmap is easy detected: https://nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts/mysql-brute.html The purpose of this thread is to familiarize people with the hacker community and realize we're not all bad. I've discussed this on other sites. Also, Maverick I stay off the darknet since mid-2013, i was this close to being exposed to the DOJ because I was in silk road at the time. Neet-one I generally reserve it for other stuff.

Question, can you hack into Presidential and/or CIA databases and find out about any existence of extraterrestrial intelligent life, any conspiracis or things the government might hide from its citizens that if known might start a panic (i.e. impending meteorite or asteroid, calculated doomsday solar flare, etc.)?

If I hacked them and was found out they'd put me in prison. Nobody would be daft enough to do that. I go for the low and medium hanging fruits. Ones that if hacked wouldn't have the resources to find out it was me.
