GVH Password Reset?
This discussion has been closed.
Comments
yeah and now I cannot open to solusvm -_-
Since i haven't seen the email people are talking about i assumed it was the standard "password reset requested" email that you get when you click on the password reset link. That one can easily be initiated by anyone who knows your email address.
If you say it's a different emai, i.e. "your password was reset", that's a totally different matter. And i agree it doesn't sound good, especially without an announcement from the provider.
Set the password back to the old one and if something strange happens during the next 12 hours, then you know that they have been hacked...
yeah let's see what will happen..
We are investigating the issue right now. I will post updates here when available.
Wat?
Interesting...
SolusVM is working fine. Can you open a ticket with your VPS user ID?
Works for GVH but promotes Nexim in sig... ? Whats the story?
Just because i work at GVH doesnt mean I dont work anywhere else.
Fair play
Why do you need to investigate. Don't you have a reason for issuing password resets or is it unintentional?
They need to check if someone higher up in the company did it and/or why...
Thats exactly what needs investigation.
That's me had 6 'Client Area Password Reset' emails this morning, should I be worried?
New GVH coupon code: 'ohshitohshitohshitohshit'
Careful you might get banned
I'd be in serious trouble then, what else am I supposed to do at work?
New email released:
Hello,
You might have received an email about the client area password reset. We are currently investigating the issue and will update you on what is happening later. Please do not open a support ticket about this issue.
Thank You
GreenValueHost Team

I bet their support desk is filling up.
work
Haha, wheres the fun in that?
Holy shit @serverian was banned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111
NEKKI WHAT DO WE DO!?
Wat?
It's OK, he telephoned me and he gave me a special 55% off coupon to share with you all - limited to 7 uses (reflecting is his 7 day ban) on Backupsy - the coupon is 'BanHammer'.
is that possible that someone used a leaked database and injected email addresses into GVH's retrieve password form for fun?
Just an update, as of now we have no evidence of a "hack" it looks more like a bug in WHMCS as the password resets were sent in line with the Cronjob, we will escalate to WHMCS to see if they have a better insight
They could, however GVH would see the IP returning in the webserver logs.
Good luck with that... "we cannot replicate this issue".
It appears that WHMCS ran it and its in line with the timing of cronjob finishing another process.
Only 55%? Come on, why not 66 in reflection of CC's favorite number, 666?
