HyperVM Exploits
So today I sign in to find that the whole of the DHD server HyperVM is down. Looks like HyperVM has been hit hard by so many exploits, personally I blame the software developers. It also seems as though VaServ has been hit hard by this attack, not sure when this will be fixed but I hope it will be soon!.

Dear customers,
As many of you are aware, we were hacked today around 7pm GMT and portion of our service has been cut off (mostly US and portion of UK servers). At this point, due to a security bug recently discovered in HyperVM panel, we’ve brought down most of our VPS nodes and are investigating situation. At this time we do not have an ETA on this, but we want to stress out that we have the whole team, onsite DC staff on each location + some extra help connected and working on the situation.
As you probably realized by now, our helpdesk and websites are off as well and we would like to point you to use a temporary URL over at – http://66.71.245.2/~vaservc/ which will provide updates on a regular basis.
This said, please avoid using IM and phones and rather check our website, as we have focused all our personnel on getting this handled on the earliest possible convenience.
We wish to thank you for the patience and understanding during these times.
Sincerely,
VAServ LTD Team
