Exploit in OpenX Ad Servers Allows For Malware

Paul Sinclair • Mar 31, 2010 • Comments ()

If you received a warning recently about malware being on PSP World, we apologise as our ad server was attacked through an exploit. We take malware very seriously here at PSP World and completely removed and installed the ad server from scratch in order to protect our readers from getting any malware. We will be migrating to a new ad server solution shortly.

We have also been in contact with Google about or situation and they have confirmed with us that it has been resolved and the site is back to normal. If you are running OpenX we suggest that you update to the latest version, which is 2.8.5 or move to another solution.

To all our readers and those that helped us over the past few days we thank you.
