Hello,

bacula.org was attacked by someone in Germany (at least through a German 
ISP).  The result of the attack is that he deleted the bacula projects 
so all the bugs disappeared.

For a few hours this morning, I shutdown the whole site while I upgraded 
the Mantis code to the latest version, which has a fix for the exploit.  
Basically, you could login as an administrator without a password.

The restored Mantis (MySQL) database is restored and the latest version 
of Mantis is installed.

The only thing that concerns me is that the Mantis upgrade procedure did 
not seem to do anything, so there is a possibility that the code may 
think the database schema is different from what it really is.

Over the next day or two, I will check that more carefully.

By the way, as far as I can tell we did not lose any data -- many thanks 
to UKFast (our bacula.org hosting site) for their very efficient service 
and for using Bacula to do backups (and for us a restore)   :-)

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,

Kern
