AhoyGame

In 2017 the gaming website AhoyGame experienced a security breach that compromised approximately 191 thousand user accounts. The incident involved the exposure of sensitive database records due to vulnerabilities in the vBulletin forum software. The leaked information primarily consisted of user identifiers and authentication credentials. The passwords were stored using salted hashes typical of older vBulletin versions which are susceptible to cracking attempts. This breach highlights the risks associated with outdated forum software and the potential for lateral movement across other services if users reused the same credentials.
