  Upgrade of webserver
Under Construction Posted by Beat Rubischon on Tuesday November 08, @03:55PM
from the apt-get dist-upgrade dept.
During Sunday, November 13. we will upgrade our webserver rauti from Debian Woody to Sarge. This upgrade affects all websites hosted at D-PHYS and the central MySQL database.

Update: We decided to defer the migration until next weekend after the detection of a break in. Read on for details.

The break in was possible through an old PhpNuke installation. The attacker got no root rights, so no user data were exposed.

After closing the hole and removing the backdoor, we went back to business as usual.
