Pandanet hacking incident

Post by kvasir »

Service suspended after an attack. Quoting the webpage:
Server down
Unfortunately, we’re experiencing server problems, so the Pandanet IGS game server can’t be used at the moment.

We are sorry for your inconveniences!

Update:

The Pandanet server is currently down due to a hacker attack, and user data might have been stolen, including usernames, emails and passwords.

If you are using the same password elsewhere (not a recommended practice, of course), we encourage you to change it.

We will send you a new password by email later.

Sorry again for the issues, we are working hard to get the server up and running as soon as possible.

The server was restored and this message could be found, I forgot about it.
Server running again

We now restored the server without changing user passwords as there was no evidence that the server attacker compromised any other information. If you are concerned, please change your password yourself.

Sorry for your inconveniences!
