uitm.edu.my Has Been Defaced?

UiTM Website Has Been Defaced

Yups, it looks like the website of Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) has been defaced by CuciOtak. Thanks to Arafat aka Trunasuci for pointing this out at #fakap channel. Anyway, one of my colleague told me that he is realized of this incident since yesterday.

Hmmm, is this because of DNS Cache Poisoning? I have performed several queries by using different DNS server and here is the result,

  • Using Dreamhost DNS,
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
  • Using Jaring DNS,
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my jaring.my
    www.uitm.edu.my CNAME uitm.edu.my
    uitm.edu.my A 66.197.236.37
  • Using TM Net DNS,
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my 202.188.1.5
    www.uitm.edu.my CNAME uitm.edu.my
    uitm.edu.my A 66.197.236.37
  • Using OpenDNS,
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my 208.67.222.222
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my 208.67.220.220
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
  • Using UiTM DNS,
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my ns1.uitm.edu.my
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my ns2.uitm.edu.my
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
    [horchata]$ host www.uitm.edu.my ns3.uitm.edu.my
    www.uitm.edu.my A 202.58.80.152
  • Using other DNS,
    > www.uitm.edu.my
    Server: resolver.[undisclosed].net
    Address: xx.xxx.135.51

    Non-authoritative answer:
    Name: uitm.edu.my
    Address: 66.197.236.37
    Aliases: www.uitm.edu.my

From the queries above, I can notice the answers are not always the same.

    1 more.. yg heran nye.. setahu saya UiTM kan antara anak buah F-Secure.. kerjasama la katakan.. lgpun stahu sy IPTA yg kerjasama ngn F-secure just UiTM n UM.. so mcm mane leh kene poison.. uitm should be advance in security compare to others.. just comment..I’m mad when someone said security uitm adalah paling lemah.. Haiz!! sedangkan UiTM yg anjur kan i-hack tiap2 tahun..
