Howdy UnrealSP.org

While being awake at (for me) an unreasonable hour, I came across this post on UT99.org:

Which links to an article here describing the latest breach of salted passwords:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/08/23/epic_games_forums_breached_salted_passwords_nabbed/

Quoting the pertinent part:

Information on some 808,000 Unreal Engine and Unreal Tournament forum accounts, including email addresses, birth dates, and private messages, have been stolen from Epic Games.
...
Salted passwords were breached for accounts active since July last year used on older game forums including legacy Unreal Tournament titles, Gears of War, and Infinity Blade.
...
The breach occurred thanks to an SQL injection hole in an outdated version of vBulletin, ZDNet reports.

Que the headaches for those re-using passwords... Stay safe, friends.
