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.

Thanks for the heads up R1CH, and I'll surely be using KeePass from now on.

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.

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.

Pretty terrible storage by GOM. Good thing I use different pw's for everything, but still, plain text is a joke.

Is there any clarification what kind of attack was used?

SQL?
Perl exploit?
?!?!?

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.

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?
