Worse. Admin account. The MichelleG account is an admin and it appears that it was compromised and is what is causing all the problems. It looks like they have removed it from admin so things wont get worse but they will likely take a bit to find and repair all the stupid little changes that were made.
The sidebar was changed.
Obviously some javascript was installed to the frontpage that makes us redirect to lemon party (NSFW) ponographic site.
Logo on top of the screen has changed, anti-Israel has been plastered all over the place.
This is not inspiring confidence in their security. 2FA was off or was somehow circumvented.
If a JWT token was stolen 2FA wouldn’t matter.
