The “dog” subdomain of the domain used by Honda Thailand, the world renowned car manufacturer, was hacked by a collective called SpyDevilz, comprising 7 members.

A message posted on the defaced website hints that the hackers may be Turkish, but it doesn’t offer any other clues to the reasons for which the operation took place.

“Do not stop your voice in your home all the lights are off, they're going back more damaged than before,” reads a translation of the message provided by The Hacker News.

At the time of writing, the subdomain still hosts the image and the message posted by the attackers. Hopefully, the website's administrators will notice the breach and patch up the vulnerabilities that allowed the hackers to gain access.

We’ve attempted to contact Honda Thailand representatives to notify them of the breach, but unfortunately, their contact page is inaccessible.
