Mars Hacked Twice



Not once but twice the Phoenix Mars Mission site got hacked. First, a Ukrainian web site defacer posted a message at the site’s blog, and hours later,




the Turkish “sql loverz crew 2008″ redirected the official mission’s site, as well as the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory site to a third-part location serving the defaced page.


These crews employ publicly obtainable remote SQL injection scanners that each site could have downloaded and performed a self-audit.
