Inj3ct0r is a hacking group that attacked the popular social networking site facebook with an sql injection attack in late 2009. They found vulnerabilities in one of the web apps through the url and managed to extract valuable information from the sql database. They also host a full-disclosure website much like milw0rm which is hosted by a user who goes by the name str0ke. Str0ke handed milw0rm over to the inj3ct0r group because he felt like he wasnt posting fast enough and was letting the exploit authors down. He posted this message on the website: "Well, this is my goodbye header for milw0rm. I wish I had the time I did in the past to post exploits, I just don't :(. For the past 3 months I have actually done a pretty crappy job of getting peoples work out fast enough to be proud of, 0 to 72 hours (taking off weekends) isn't fair to the authors on this site. I appreciate and thank everyone for their support in the past. Be safe, /str0ke" But then he tweeted... "I have talked with a few friends and I'll be handing the site over so a group of people can add exploits / other things to the site. Hopefully it will be a new good start" (namely: inj3ct0r) The website works by receiving emails from hackers who have discovered vulnerabilities in web applications and written exploits to gain restricted access on the host/pc that the program/application has been installed on. The group hosts both websites that have similar layouts, although the inj3ct0r site has groups added posts.
