Even an idiotic noob like me (MasterTonberry) can go to Babelfish and click Translate Webpage, and i'll put up a few things w1r3d said on here, (or at least, what Babel Fish makes of it) while he was arguing with Martian~Blood:

w1r3d: excrement Indian I do not need a super computer to crackear md5, with rainbow tables I can crackear almost everything in less than 2 minutes, am ke is, you call it as you call it were hack, and I can bolber it to aser and it was cookies neither scripts nor nothing, was PURE HACK!

w1r3d: ke changes to me of address by ke? by my IP? this in cafe Internet, of a network wireless, aside ay as 5 wireless aki opened ke and I can be in favor changing, kieres to see? cheka my IP another one bes jajaja

Just go to babelfish.altavista.com and translate http://www.ozmita.com/foro/punbb/upload/viewtopic.php?id=2667&p=2
from Spanish into English... yes, it's far from perfect, but you can get a general picture.
Someone needs to get this guy arrested if he's stealing paypal accounts... this can't be good.

He uploaded a pre-made script (yes, a script that he downloaded off the Internet) and gained control that way. Pure hack? Script kiddie.

If we can control PGTour by downloading scripts off the internet... this can't be good. Surely there is a way to prevent this?

Even with rainbow tables, it depends what's the maximum length of the password, and if it contains letter and/or digits, and if it is uppercase or lowercase=.=. I doubt he got 32 paypal accounts.

It's actually quite simple. On PGTour, we had an upload section for the staff to use. Eventually we branched it off so people could upload replays for complaints, and whatnot. Well, this script wasn't written by Chr1s. This was a premade upload script that they borrowed because it was only for private use when it was first used. What the script failed to do was check the file extension, meaning users were able to upload .php files and execute them.

This problem will undoubtedly be fixed, and it's easy to do so. So, in short, he got lucky. Mind you, he did know what he was doing to an extent.

Was w1r3d originally an admin, or has someone leaked an admin pass ?

When you register, you need to put in your e-mail address. There's a good chance someone used the same e-mail. However, it's extremely unlikely that he got any paypal accounts, because first of all, there are hundreds of thousands of accounts on PGTour. He would have to crawl the database and grab the e-mail address for each, as well as the MD5 of their passwords, then try to crack it and attempt to log in.

Sounds like bullshit to me.

As far as we know, he wasn't an admin. However, he could have and probably was masking his IP while doing this, so we'll never know.

But no passwords were compromised.

Because you might have registered the same email on PGT as you use for paypal... and your email IS your username on PayPal.

Because some people have difficulty remembering one password as it is, which is why many sites have autologin or password remembrance functions.

He mentioned something about a 'super-script' that would do this for him.
