The Zimbabwean Ministry of ICT website has been hacked, adding extra pages with harm risk to visitors.
Indonesian cyber attackers are believed to be the culprits for the latest attack on the e-Tech Africa expo host page, TechZim reported.
The hackers gained access to the website by taking advantage of unrestricted file uploads, thereby adding pages as traces of vulnerability.
Indonesian attackers under the leadership of SultanHaikal are said to be motivated by proving the website is not secure enough.
“I am not a hacker. Just a security tester,” one of the messages displayed on an added page reads.
The address provides information about the event which took place for the first time in 2012.
Although no defacement was detected on the site, pages such as ‘root’ have been added (as displayed in the image on the left).
The e-Tech Africa website runs on open source content management systems (CMS) Joomla and was developed by the government affiliated internet service provider ZARNet.
