Tonight, previous versions of phpBB (using a database that read 2.0.14 or older) were disabled on this server. This was done so they cannot be used by outsiders to spam or launch any attacks. "Disabled" as in if you visit your /forum path, you will see a message instructing you to perform an upgrade to 2.0.16. We thank you for your cooperation and help during this clean up operation. The majority of the installations were installed more than a year ago and left behind. Due to all of the various versions and the amount of servers that need to be "patched" a mass system scan was basically our only solution. What will result from this clean up? Optimized server performance! Please help us in keeping all programs up to date.
On Quela: 116 vulnerable forum paths were disabled  Fantastico in your cPanel contains version 2.0.16. Optionally you can visit, http://www.phpbb.com/downloads.php

If you use any of the following scripts:
FA-PHPHosting PHPClique PHPCalendar PHPCurrently PHPFanBase PHPQuotes Please disable them immediately or use the fix specified below. There are serious exploits going around the net right now and have been for the past few months. All of these scripts are made by http://codegrrl.com/ and have a ridiculously easy hole in them: " include($logout_page);" This allows an attacker to include whatever code they wish into the php file and run the commands. To avoid getting your site defaced, we recommend you either remove the protection.php file asap, or edit it and remove that line above.
