dig seems to be OK
I’m still waiting for the news of why this thing happened..
[update]
DAMMIT!! I used “dig facebook.com” and not “dig www.facebook.com”.. ARGH!!!! Anyone has dig result for www.facebook.com? I pretty much believe that it has something to do with Akmai’s distributed servers
[update]
hi all, i believe that, this issues come some the distributed akmai server. If you are on Linux/Unix/Mac, this is what you can do:-
sudo -i echo "69.63.191.219 www.facebook.com" >> /etc/hosts |
then start browsing to facebook 🙂

Facebook :: SQL Injection Vulnerability Found
Posted: January 8th, 2009 | Author: xanda | Filed under: My Self | Tags: facebook, superpoke | 6 Comments »Yesterday, a friend of mine, YM me and inform me regarding the SQL injection that he found.
After tested, I’ve found that the SQL injection is working and I straight away launch a report to Facebook team… But until now, the vulnerability still haven’t been patched by them.
So , if you are a Facebook user, please change your password 🙂
Another thing about Facebook is.. I hate Superpoke, not bacause of the application, but the Superpokers. Hahaha.. I already block and remove the application from me account..
