phpBB's web site (http://www.phpBB.com) got compromised, and it is currently unavailable. phpBB is a popular web based discussion system.</p><p align="justify">According to the statement on their front page at the moment, the intrusion has nothing to do with the phpBB software itself. Instead there is an unconfirmed report (http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?sid=&p=106763) that compromise may have been done using a security vulnerability in Awstats (http://awstats.sourceforge.net/) instead.
