User account info leaked?


Recommended Posts

Today I was cleaning my spam folder and found a demand for ransom saying they stole my passwords and what not. Listed my Legacygt.com password as proof, I only used that combination here. Nothing happened this far but I changed the pass just in case.

I've been saying for a long time that it bothers me that the site is not secure (http vs https). Now I need to change my password.

I think I got that same email- I figured it was a remnant of when Comcast lost a bunch of account info a couple years ago (because I reuse passwords like a noob), but that's the same password I use here as well. I'll see what has to be done about putting up an announcement about changing passwords.

You can enter your email address into https://haveibeenpwned.com/

It's a legit site run by the security researcher Tony Hunt.

 

If they know about any breaches with your email in them, they'll tell you.

It may be like what cww516 said, that it's the same password from another site.

 

Since this site is http, it's seriously at risk for malware injection for drive-bys and password theft.

If you all need help getting a cert setup for it, I'm game to spend a little time to help.

This site has been setup on a secure server for the past four years in a well-managed and protected (as well as anything can be protected in the civilian sector) data center. Note the https:// in our address.

Ah, I see that now; Chrome has changed to hiding the protocol, but has an "i" to indicate it doesn't like something.

Looks like Chrome is fussing about supporting TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 and a number of weak cipher suites in the TLS 1.2.

 

Thanks for all you do for this site!

Most forum passwords were all hacked in 2014, so it isn't surprising. I fortunately had already revamped my password structure. All my forums I signed up for have a generic forum password. I get those emails too. Good luck getting any real information from that.
