The hackers planted a backdoor on the Citroen website, allowing them to steal any information hosted on the web server. Citroen becomes the latest victim of Adobe ColdFusion hackers. The attackers managed to embed the backdoor on shop.citroen.de, a fan site for buying Citroen based gifts. Passwords used to access the website and admin passwords for running it have been reset, purchases have been temporarily disabled, and customers are advised to keep a close eye on their bank accounts.
