Anonymous hackers continue OpGabon, the campaign initiated in protest against the country’s government and corporations that support it.

The hacktivists’ latest target is the website of Eramet subsidiary Comilog (eramet-comilog.com), the second largest producer of high-grade manganese ore in the world, HackRead informs.

The hackers targeted the organization because it’s a major economic player in Gabon.

“Hello citizens of the world, this is Anonymous once again, here with a wild leak of the defaced site,” the hackers wrote in a document containing data leaked from the company’s website.

The information published online consists of administrator details, including easy-to-crack MD5 password hashes.

It appears the hackers have leveraged an SQL Injection vulnerability to gain access to the site’s databases.

At the time of writing, the website is still defaced.
