Forum being marked as Unsafe by Chrome due to spam links in pages.

Posted Wednesday, 8 December, 2010 - 19:50 by ebnf in

The following page has some spam links in it causing Chrome to trigger it's malicious site detection:
http://www.opentk.com/news/0.9.1_progress_on_glu_tesselation#comment-442...

Looks like either that user account is compromised or some XSS security hole existed (exists?) allowing posts to be edited. I haven't see any other pages like this, but if anyone else has, maybe it's an active problem.

Thanks, cleaned. There were left overs from a huge spam attack back in early 2009. This is much less of an issue now with the new spam filters. Doesn't look like a security issue either (no known issues on the CMS right now).
