What was leaked?
> Numerous DBs on the host, however the user database wasn't taken - only information containing payments for upgrades was. This includes address + phone number information for all upgraded accounts - Omni says the size was around 12MB

Who is affected?
> If your account was upgraded AFTER 1st April 2011, the payment information for the upgrade(s) will be in the DB. Any upgrades after January 26th 2013 are also safe.

Someone bought me my upgrade, was my data included?
> No

I bought someone an upgrade, was my data included?
> In short, yes.

Donations, stickies ando other purchases
> Only upgrade data was taken. If you have bought stickies or donated, that information was not part of the "leak"

Credit Card Information
> No payment information (CC numbers etc) was stored. That is safe with the payment processor used for the transaction.

Why was this information stored?
> Address info was stored to ensure that no transactions were fraudulent. In addition, this information could be used in the case of an upgraded account being lost and requiring the owner to recover it.

Was my password leaked?
> No

I'm an Ub3r member; can I check if my data has been compromised?
> Yes, go here https://hackforums.net/myawards.php?uid=YOUR_UID_HERE - the award date should be PRE April 2011 or POST January 26th 2013

Is it safe to upgrade now?
> Yes.

Has the information been posted publicly?
> As of writing this (06/02/2013), no. And I doubt it will be. However, the DB entries of members in the "Legion" group have been released.

"I bought someone an upgrade, was my data included?"

I thought it was... as someone buying another member an upgrade would get banned if the payment was charged back.
You have to enter in your billing information to upgrade a member.

It depends on what data you entered while buying the upgrade, yours or the member you upgraded..

When I upgraded members, I used their info.. Some of my friends, just used their information..

Fixed my post to explain it more. Mr Kewl gets it.

In relation to the question "I bought someone an upgrade, was my data included?"

Whatever information you put in these:


Is the information they have access to.

Example:
I bought an upgrade for member B. When doing the upgrade I put my information in those boxes. So now, under member B's UID is my information.

Exactly. That is the way I see it too but Mr. OP said Omni said something different.

[CarrotMilk]

Apologies for the confusion; I misread Omni's post last night. You are correct and I have amended the OP :)

If you bought someone an upgrade your data was included.

OP has edited his post as everyone on the thread said the same thing 😁

Is it safe to upgrade at this moment?
Yes it is safe Omniscient has secured the vulnerability so the exploit is no longer usable.

[Mag1c-Pot]

My account was upgraded on 18 April 2011. Was my info compromised?
You said AFTER April, does that mean starting in May 2011?

No the leak contains members who upgraded from April 1st through January 26th.
