Microsoft's UK Website Hacked into by Lunatics

MICROSOFT IS TARGET FOR ANOTHER HACK!
Hackers broke through Microsoft's UK website and defaced Microsoft's front main page by replacing real content with photo of a small child carrying a Saudi Arabian flag. The hackers achieved this latest Microsoft defacement by using SQL injection, according to Zone-H, which is a security firm specializing in web content security information.

Every time a new page is generated, a table on Microsoft's main site page gets read. During this short amount of time, the hackers used SQL injection to insert HTML code into the table which replaced Microsoft's content with the JPEG image of the child with the flag. Microsoft is currently trying to track down the people behind this latest hack on their main site, but can't figure out exactly who is to blame as of yet.

MICROSOFT APOLOGIZES TO IT'S UK CUSTOMERS
Microsoft's spokesmen went on record to explain to its customers that the issue of this latest hack was resolved within hours after the instigators first changed the content from text into the picture of the child with the flag, and there is no cause for alarm. The website was taken down for a few hours so that the technical support staff in charge of Microsoft's UK website could take care of the situation.

Microsoft's UK site is supported by a third-party company that hosts the web site, and not by the many technicians behind Microsoft's office doors, which is kind of peculiar for a company that is technically superior to any other computer-related organization.

Microsoft officials have gone as record as stating that they are constantly being hacked by computer users through out the world, but that most of the hackers never make it past the first line of security defense 99% of the time. How this one got through whereas all of the other hackers have failed in the past, Microsoft officials cannot figure out.

ACT OF MISCHIEF OR TERROR?
So far, there has been no evidence recovered that specifically pinpoints a terrorist group such as Al Queda as being the main culprits behind this large hacker attack, but the significance of the Saudi Arabian flag's presence in the photograph should be taken into account as far as trying to figure out what was behind the intentions of this attack.

Why was that flag chosen as opposed to any other? Why is the child waving it? These are all relevant questions to be asked at a time of war in the middle east, mostly after two terrorist attacks were averted recently in London.

This latest attack on Microsoft is probably the result of a couple of harmless hackers getting lucky in their quest for achieving such a successful hack on a target as big as Microsoft, but in this day and age, you never know.
