Rwandan Hackers have breached the site of Uganda’s Makerere University (mak.ac.ug), the largest educational institution in the country, leaking a handful of admin usernames and password hashes from two of its domains.

From Makerere University’s Department of Zoology the hackers published information on the server on which the site is hosted, the database’s structure, along with the usernames and password hashes of one administrator and two staff members.

The subdomain associated with the Sports Science department has also been breached, the username and password hashes of an admin, a super admin, and two staff members being made available.

Lately, Rwandan Hackers have been highly active, targeting sites such as the one of Kenya’s Victoria Bank, Commercial Bank of Ethiopia, Ghana’s TV3 Network, and the Fidelity Bank of Ghana.
