In all seriousness, no one is talking about this, but this is the one disadvantage of open source software being developed by volunteers, we don’t know exactly how the admin accounts were hacked but the XSS stuff is really basic stuff, none of those fields were sanatised at all, and it makes me concerned what else has been missed, obviously the advantage of open source is in time this stuff can get fixed, but this is what happens when loads of people who aren’t experts contribute to a site.

In comparison to sites where there is a fully hired developer team the quality of the code is significantly better. I really hope the passwords were hashed on these instances and the hackers didn’t get plain text passwords or anything really bad like this.

One thing and credit to Ernest, as I’ve contributed there he does very thorough code reviews and his quality of code is very good, its why im confident kbin won’t be hacked.
