Phony Order Faxed to Registrar Leads to Metasploit Defacement

From http://threatpost.com/phony-order-fa...acement/102576

Quote:

A pro-Palestine hacker collective went old-school in its takedown of the Metasploit and Rapid7 websites today.

Metasploit creator and HD Moore confirmed via Twitter that Metasploit.com was hacked via a spoofed DNS change request sent via fax to its registrar, Register.com.
