kloxo/lxadmin被攻击，VPS行业面临洗牌
最近FSCKVPS被攻击事件已成VPS业界最大热点之一。数据甚至用户信用卡信息都已丢失。据说相关的漏洞在这里。
看着这些漏洞我想起了一个老师教过我们：任何系统调用都必须检查返回值。显然lxlabs的程序员没有这样做过。这24个漏洞我感觉有一大半都是这个问题。其中还有低级的SQL注入攻击的机会。

然而，lxlabs可能已经无力修复这些漏洞了。几天前，lxlabs的创始人K T Ligesh在住所自杀。愿逝者安息。
失去了kloxo，VPS供应商们会用什么呢？


资讯】lxadmin/kloxo的作者自杀了


昨天发帖介绍了由于lxadmin/kloxo安全漏洞致多家VPS公司是被黑的消息，特别是vaserv.com这家损失惨重。今天得到消息lxadmin/kloxo的作者可能不堪压力已经在昨天上吊自杀。(lxadmin是kloxo前身，不久前改名)

vaserv.com一家有多个品牌的大型的英国主机商，主要是做英、美的VPS业务，包括cheapvps\epicvps\fsckvps等，其VPS使用的就是HyperVM/kloxo的控制面板。由于受到此次黑客事件，数千的顾客受到影响，其网站都无法访问，甚至多台服务器的数据已被删除，至今大量的服务器仍未修复（本人的多个VPS仍无法访问）。目前vaserv.com已将其英国业务转手给其空间商BlueSquare。

本人要在这里建议做网站的各位：对于重要的数据一定要进行备份，数据小的备份到邮箱或是自己的计算机，如果大的就到另外一家公司买服务器备份，否则一旦丢失悔之晚矣。

lxadmin/kloxo的作者Ligesh，也就是LxLabs公司的所有者，一名优秀的软件工程师，其离世令人伤心。5年前他的妈妈和姐姐也用同样的方式结束了自己的生命。下面是摘引：

Techie hangs himself in HSR Layout

Bangalore : He sported long hair, usually played the guitar well into the wee hours at his house in Sector 6, HSR Layout and his shoulder tattoo read `God is a F***** Idiot'.

He lived a lonely life, perhaps unable to come to terms with the tragic suicide of his sister and mother a couple of years ago.

On Monday morning, software company owner K T Ligesh, 32, was found hanging in his house.

He was also deeply upset his company, Lx Labs, in HSR Layout, 6th Sector, had recently lost a project to another company. The police said Ligesh, son of Dr Sreedharan of Kannur, Kerala, was a brilliant software engineer who came to the city about four years ago. He set up his company which was doing quite well and stayed with a friend Sheenu in the same house where his company was located.

Both his mother and sister had hanged themselves five years ago and this had always bothered Ligesh. A song writer and guitarist, he was even part of a band. The police said they'd received several complaints from neighbours about the loud music and even warned him.

Neighbours confirmed that Ligesh didn't have many friends and didn't interact with anyone. Often, he'd sleep with the house door open. On his social networking site page, he wrote that his ambition was to kill God and he was an anti-Christ.

On Sunday night, Ligesh and Sheenu talked and drank till well past midnight and an agitated Ligesh talked about the death of his mother and sister. DCP (South-East) B N S Reddy said he was also upset about the lost contract.

While Sheenu went to sleep in his room, Ligesh stayed in his and on Monday morning, Sheenu found that Ligesh had hanged himself.

Dr Sreedharan came to Bangalore on hearing of the death. The post mortem will be conducted on Tuesday, after which the body will be handed over to his father.
