14 DAY TRIAL // A total of 15 RedBull websites have been hacked by an Algerian hacker that uses the online moniker Over-X.
The hacker has defaced each of the sites with a message that reads “Hacked by HCN,” along with a link to the AntiSec DZ Facebook page.
The affected domains are the ones of the RedBull blog from the UK (blogs.redbull.co.uk), the RedBull Moto GP Rookies Cup (redbullrookiescup.com), RedBull World in Austria (redbullworld.at), RedBull Racing (fanzone.redbullracing.com and fanzone.infiniti-redbullracing.com), RedBull Creative (redbullcreative.com).
RedBull Netherlands (wob.redbull.nl), RedBull India (racingcan.redbull.in), RedBull Phenom (redbullphenom.com), and the Australian, Greek, Dutch, Irish, and Belgian sites for the RedBull Bedroom Jam contest have also been defaced.
For each of these sites, the defacement page has been added to a subfolder. The impacted websites are most likely hosted on the same server.
At the time of writing, the websites are still defaced. Mirrors are available on Over-X’s zone-h.org account. I’m trying to contact RedBull to see if they can comment on the incident.
