Re: Olympus security
Did you report to the security tracker? phpBB.com run it so obviously they feel its secure. Not reporting stuff stops them being aware of any issues and being able to fix it

Report the hack.
Try to include as much information as you have.

I thought you were trained enough to extrapolate informations from users by mind-reading. Your wages should be halved.

Re: Olympus security
one of the forums I had got hacked within hours .. the reason was pretty simple .. the PC I logged in as Admin from had a Key Logger .. it emailed some jack-ass on the other site of the planet all ma inputs .. and after an hour I get a call from one of member saying some Team DRX has hacked it .. for some reason .. I think this person had a similar situation .. if they know the password .. its a piece of a cake ..
Re: Olympus security
If so phpBB cannot do anything against it as its not a security risk of phpBB but of the user

Re: Olympus security
I don't remember the dates the security tracker or the investigating team got kicked off, but they were well before the main site update. for example, this announcement asking for better incident reporting is from almost two years ago.
