Garbled spammy flag reason

Posted under General

I just discovered a garbled flag reason on post #133181, consisting of various spam URLs.

Didn’t we have such garbage in a forum post and a post comment already? My Search Fu is weak, so I can’t find them. IIRC, the forum post was by some (presumably) innocent user and someone suspected a security breach. I can’t see who flagged this post, so I have no idea whether someone’s account got taken over again or something.

As the post will hopefully be reapproved, here’s a copy of the bogus flag reason:

qxzvxebocppsv, <a href="htXXtp://page81.com/">Vigrx versus pro solution</a>, FoBjAcD, [url=htXXtp://page81.com/]Vigrx verses[/url], KkWnonH, htXXtp://page81.com/ VigRX, VuQkxsM, <a href="htXXtp://oasishyperbarics.com/">Vigrx wiki</a>, BqrgxRl, [url=htXXtp://oasishyperbarics.com/]Vigrx plus australia[/url], hjlFpDc, htXXtp://oasishyperbarics.com/ Vigrx plus reviews, jbIGsMh, <a href="htXXtp://premiercobras.com/">Free electronic cigarettes</a>, vzWGOJZ, [url=htXXtp://premiercobras.com/]Reviews of electronic cigarettes[/url], IEFpaIv, htXXtp://premiercobras.com/ Volcano electronic cigarettes, TubXLau, <a href="htXXtp://openldev.org/">Is tramadol a narcotic</a>, GPUWFEC, [url=htXXtp://openldev.org/]Tramadol[/url], mgLKkAL, htXXtp://openldev.org/ Tramadol, hFFeIJx, <a href="htXXtp://hghhelper.com/">Nutrition hgh</a>, ImcoxhM, [url=htXXtp://hghhelper.com/]Duration of hgh therapy[/url], uVpZinG, htXXtp://hghhelper.com/ Buying injectable hgh, CocueMA, <a href="htXXtp://quebecantique.com/">Supplements to increase pituitary secretion of hgh increase cell sensitivity</a>, jdInMWH, [url=htXXtp://quebecantique.com/]HGH[/url], GuIBNci, htXXtp://quebecantique.com/ Hgh diet, yCIAQBa.

I replaced http with htXXtp everywhere so that the forum doesn’t automatically create links to these dodgy sites.

It was Schrobby again, he had the issues the first time as well. I'm not sure this isn't an issue on Schrobby's end at this point.

It has occurred multiple times for Schrobby, but it has also occurred for other users as well. Example: comment #1133236, by user suuugoi.

Is it okay to keep this flag from approval for further inspection? I'm afraid if others might have been affected too.

I would personally leave it until Albert takes a look at it.

Just great. Should I change my password again?

Edit: WUT? My IP? I run virus checks every few days. The only possibility I see would be a flash exploit before I updated. Gotta check this...

My system is clean. Right now I'm checking data HDDs usually hooked up just to make sure. If it's my side causing this it's either an extremely well hidden root kit or someone hijacked my router. I'll examine this closely.
