Alarabiya.net Hacked

Oct 10, 2008

Today I was checking the image
news as I do everyday, and one of the websites was alarabiya.net , to find out that it was hacked.

now its been exactly 13 hours since I noticed the hack and the website still down. attached is a screen shot.

after doing some tests and tracing, i noticed that i was redirected to another server to view this page, other than the webserver for the alarbiya.net

seems like DNS poisoning to me !!

if any of you out there have comments about this subject, it would be appreciated to share.
