[FD] Yahoo! hacked on October 5, 2014...



I submitted to Yahoo! earlier some documentation detailing both the 
"shellshock"/bash vulnerability and how my research on it lead me to 
discovering that Yahoo!'s internal servers had been compromised, and that the 
individuals were working on traversing their network. It was not until I 
contacted several media outlets and the FBI that they actually responded. 
However, once they responded, they did confirm the servers were breached. Their 
answer to the lack of contact methods available is absolutely absurd in my 
opinion. In fact, the entire response was a joke. The fact that they informed 
me I could have used the bug bounty system to report it - though it's not 
eligible for a bounty - is equivalent to saying - "Thanks, but so we're clear, 
we don't owe you crap, but let us know if anything else comes up." Perhaps if 
they weren't busy paying CEO's absurd salaries, they could afford to hire an IT 
staff that's not fresh out of ITT Technical Institute and sporting pull-ups.

Please see the rest of everything related to this at

Non-authoritative answer: Name: dip4.gq1.yahoo.com Address: 63.250.204.25

Non-authoritative answer: Name: api118.sports.gq1.yahoo.com Address: 
10.212.240.43

These are the two servers that were 100% positively identified as being 
compromised, with the dip4.gq1.yahoo.com server being the initial point of 
entry via Shellshock.

Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich and a 
tragedy for the poor.
