Minecraft Severe Hacking!
« on: December 11, 2021, 12:02:41 PM »
There's a flaw in the apache software that mostly Minecraft servers use that will easily allow a hacker to take over the entire server(s)! It's all over the net! Here's some info on it:

Even if you don't use Minecraft it would be best to make sure your apache is updated!!!

I no longer use any of those, but I did use Steam for a long time with some games that were of interest to me.

The biggest issues are that it can take over the server. For instance, we have a VPS with Minecraft Server on it. If something goes wrong there's a possibility the hacker could take over the entire server...all VPS' etc.!!!

The person who has the VPS has been notified.
