EVE Online : Forum Issues Not a Cause for Concern
A new DevBlog coming from CCP about an incident with their forums yesterday and today reassures players that, despite some security issues that came with their new forums, they've been addressed and players can rest assured "that none of their personal details, login credentials or billing information were compromised". Check it out.
We disabled the new forums temporarily while we investigated and addressed the situation. We can assure players that none of their personal details, login credentials or billing information were compromised as that information is maintained on a separate encrypted server.
We have since identified and fixed these security issues, and have patched and tested the software. We believe that we have resolved the security issue successfully. We will continue to investigate the cause of these problems, and hope to have more information available to you soon.
At 03:30 UTC on April 9, we took the forums down again for a second time to apply a hotfix that would restore several moderator features. Unfortunately, this hotfix did not resolve the issues with moderator functionality, and as a result, we are keeping the forums down until the full team is available Saturday morning to resolve the issue.
