SolusVM Vulnerability

In case you have not already heard, SolusVM has a pretty big vulnerability. A few providers have been affected. I urge all providers to immediately address this. More info here.

    As a client, what should we do?? Wait for the provider to say its ‘fixed’, then reinstall our vps *and* change our password into solusvm?

    Anything else?

    Seriously? Did the developer(s) _JUST_ learn PHP or something? That’s such a joke.

      As I told many times before to many people: solus is awful and even kids could do it better security wise

  3. $xc = $db -> query('SELECT * FROM centralbackup WHERE id = \'' . $_POST['deleteid'] . '\'', true);
    

    Query to database directly from the POST ? It’s not even sanitized (not to mention PDO and bind parameters…). This software is supposed to be the “industry standard” …

    Anyone using SolusVM after today deserves all they get. To all providers: I urge you to ditch it.

    • It’s all about best on the market. This is SolusVM for now. Until it changes, we have to stick with it. Every software has its fair share of issues and exploits. At least Solus reacted.

    Attention providers:
    In roughly 12 hours I will be disclosing 3 zero day vulnerabilities on solusvm.
    I suggest you take backups fast or else hackers will abuse this. I have tried contacting solusvm to fix it however I have been ignored.
    They stated the vuln is “not important at this time”
    Good luck.

      SolusVM seems to jump when issues arise so unsure how they would ignore any creditable threat.

      Esp considering your name is lol, I assume its a post to scare users esp considering the industry is mainly company’s trying to provide cheap services, None disclosure of problems just causes headaches an leaves longer for issues to arise an cause problems.
