Hackers Breach 3 Hacking Forums, Leak Databases

In a case of having a taste of one's own medicine, three hacking forums were hacked, their databases being leaked online. Security researchers from Cyble recently discovered the leaks from three hacking forums, including SUXX.TO, Nulled, and Sinful Site.

Hacking forums such as these are places where cybercriminals and hackers discuss, share, and sell hacking tools, malware, tutorials, and data leaks. Many hacking campaigns rely on tools that threat actors can easily obtain from hacking forums and dark web marketplaces. Some of the tools that can be found on websites such as those mentioned above include the Babylon RAT, the Parallax RAT, the Lucy mobile malware family, and many others.

''All these hacking forums are based on general discussion and sharing of related resources. It is a place where users can find lots of great data leaks, hacking and cracking tools, software, tutorials, and much more. Along with that, over here, the users can also take part in active discussions and make new friends also,'' Cyble wrote in a statement.

The researchers said they found databases that contained detailed information about users of the Nulled and SUXX.TO forums, that was apparently dumped on May 20, 2020. The Sinful Site database was dumped on May 15, 2020, and included private messages that hackers sent each other over the forum. The three hacking forums were taken down temporarily, while the hackers behind the database leak remain unknown.
