Iskorpitx's Attack: Over 21,000 Websites Defaced by Turkish Hacker

Yesterday the Turkish cracker going by the handle "Iskorpitx", succesfully hacked 21,549 websites in one shot (plus 17,000 as our last update) and defaced (on a secondary page) all of them with a message showing the Turkish flag (with AtaTurk face on it) and reporting: HACKED BY iSKORPiTX (TURKISH HACKER) ..." . Iskorpitx controversial defacing activity started back in year 2003 being the first Turkish defacer ever. His defacing frenzy led him soon to reach the "incredible" number of more than 117,000 hacked websites some of them being even government websites of his own country. In this last incident, it is not clear at which level the intrusion was performed (root or webserver) as the fact that all the 21,549 websites got defaced on a secondary page (site.com/ssfm/isko.htm) it is not indicative given the particular Iskorpitx's modus operandi that sees all of his hacks performed creating a subpage, regardless the authorization level achieved on the attacked servers. The link for this article located at Zone-H is no longer available. . In 2023, Iskorpitx unleashed a cyber assault impacting over 21,000 websites, revealing critical vulnerabilities in web applications and urging enhanced security measures.
