Moar hackings?
#13
There has been an increase of account hackings in the past month or two. In most of the cases I know of, email isn't compromised, both password and pic for maple accounts were changed. I'm not sure if a PIC request is sent to the associated email or not. There's probably an exploit or cross-scripting to hijack PIC change, so if they know your password and login ID (which is not encrypted, thanks Nexon), you're screwed. Password cracking is probably done via hashing or maybe rainbow table just like last Christmas since the victims seem random. I already told my buddies to all change to a more secure password. PIC doesn't seem to offer any level of protection at all when it comes to account theft, password is your best defense sadly.
