Chenz Sweden1197 Posts August 12 2011 19:35 GMT #181 You guys should avoid changing your password on GOMtv until it's been confirmed that the security flaw has been fixed, unless you're changing it to an unique password. Damn, MLG seems to be down. Can't access my profile to change my password.

Superouman France2195 Posts August 12 2011 19:36 GMT #183 Thanks for warning us.

KhAmun United States1005 Posts August 12 2011 19:38 GMT #184 Thanks for the heads up R1CH, and I'll surely be using KeePass from now on.

sOvrn United States678 Posts August 12 2011 19:38 GMT #185 Shit, thanks for the heads up. Changed my password and going to check out that Keepass website.

Shield Bulgaria4824 Posts August 12 2011 19:38 GMT #186 Obviously GOM should hire R1CH in order to support their servers! :D

Double Letters United States58 Posts August 12 2011 19:38 GMT #187 Can we talk about the whole plaintext thing for a second? It feels like me, with no actual security training, would be be better at securing half the world's websites. How much was the Sony security guy (the one that also decided to sore passwords in plain text) getting paid? Pay me half I can do that job easily, since apparently despite having no actual education in security, I know more than him/her. How about the guy at GOM who decided to store passwords in plaintext? How much did they pay him to make such awful security decisions? It's frustrating that over and over again this shit happens, and companies keep using poor security regardless.

Ownos United States2147 Posts August 12 2011 19:39 GMT #188 I'm not too worried. Oh and the passwords as plain text deal... GOD WTF... I can sort of forgive GOM cause they are small. But PSN doing that was LOL do they not have experienced men on board? Storing PW as tokens is like the most basic thing.

Crying Bulgaria778 Posts August 12 2011 19:40 GMT #190 It seems to me that mainly the Asian websites are having plain text stored passwords,PSN now GOMTV ,i cant recall major big corporation in USA/EUROPE that had such problems?

Mortal 2943 Posts August 12 2011 19:41 GMT #193 Pretty terrible storage by GOM. Good thing I use different pw's for everything, but still, plain text is a joke.

Juliette United States6003 Posts August 12 2011 19:41 GMT #194 wow :| gonna start making sure my passwords wont poop on me from now on ty for the heads up

Crying Bulgaria778 Posts August 12 2011 19:42 GMT #195 Is there any clarification what kind of attack was used? SQL? Perl exploit? ?!?!?

ZombiesOMG United States282 Posts August 12 2011 19:43 GMT #196 I only use this email address for gomtv and TL, so changing the pw for those 2 plus the gmail account I think I'll be alright. Bad move on the plaintext thing, though.

Ponyo United States1231 Posts August 12 2011 19:43 GMT #197 darn! and gom is the only site where i used a throw away pass, mostly because I was sharing my account with buds for one season where i bought HD.

Titorelli 2492 Posts August 12 2011 19:44 GMT #198 Why is everone thanking Facebook? Did I miss something? And its only the Gomtv.net PW no credit card infos whatsoever?

LittleAtari Jordan1090 Posts August 12 2011 19:44 GMT #199 Question: Right now my GOMTV password is not the same as my other passwords, however, a few months ago, it was. Should i still go and change my other passwords?

obsKura Ireland1061 Posts August 12 2011 19:45 GMT #200 Hi R1CH, thanks for the info. Did you already report this to GOMtv/Mr. Chae?
