Parent article: Vendor-sec host compromised, shut down

It's worth noting that after that email the cracker came back and destroyed the system, according to this. :-(

So after I posted this (and went for some beers) the attacker read this and reentered the lst.de machine, went amok and destroyed the machine's installation. The machine has now been shutdown.
So everyone please consider vendor-sec () lst de is dead and gone at this point, successors (or not) will hopefully result out of this discussion.

For a mailing list that is about security, I'm surprised with the lack of backups, forensics and security procedures ("when you detect a breakin, get the machine offline first!"). A shame.
