Bangladeshi Hackers Celebrate Eid by Defacing 500 Websites
Krad Xin, a hacker of the Bangladesh Grey Hat Hackers (BGHH) collective, has defaced nearly 500 websites in an attack dedicated to Palestine.
The attack coincides with the celebration of Eid al-Fitr, an important Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan. This year, Eid began in the evening of August 7 and ended in the evening of August 8.
The websites defaced by the Bangladeshi hacker appear to belong to organizations from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, the United States, Turkey and some other countries.
On the defacement page, the hacker explains that no harm has been done to the server on which the sites are hosted. However, he threatens organizations that spread spam and ones that host adult content.
Currently, most of them still display the defacement page posted by the hacker.
