At the 14th and 15th november, a lot of MyBB forums have been hacked. The attacker compromised the github account of a MyBB developer and implemented evil code via the update check of the MyBB ACPs.
MybbAddons has not been hacked. We have a security plugin that - beside other things - deactivates MyBB news and update check via ACP.
If you have been inside your ACP between 14th November 23:00 GMT and15th November 15:30 GMT, you probably have been hacked.
Please read the official announcement and get support in the Mybb.com community forums!
As always, forum users should have a single password per platform and change that on a regulary base. If you used the password you are using here in a compromised forum, do not forget to change it here too!
