All of our DNN sites on one of our servers was just hacked today. Many of them were v5.6.3 stable. The Default.aspx was overwritten in each case. Not sure of any more details at this time, trying to restore and clean up the damage. Are there any known vulnerabilities in 5.6.3?

There is 1 "low" issue which will be resolved in a future 5.6.4 release, but this is very minor and has lots of mitigating factors and has a very low effect (allows access to module settings when the user should only have edit permissions). Please email security@dotnetnuke.com if you have any security related questions. I would recommend you check your IIS logs to determine the issue but when multiple elements are changed it often indicates that it's a server level issue (missing patches/configuration) or a a common factor (e.g. FTP username/password) rather than an issue with individual sites.

Also check for the viruses server wide, recently we had a similar issue with one of our dedicated server client, that turned out to be a virus.

Wanted to let everyone no this was not a DNN issue. Other non DNN sites were effected as well on that server. Apparently our hosting provider was a day late with some scheduled patches.
