SCO "own all your code"
29th November, 2004
SCO's web site now proudly proclaims "We own all your code" and "pay us all your money".
Some people might claim that this just represents a simplification in SCO's stance on Unix intellectual property but a closer look reveals that the prominent image on their home page was the work of an attacker.
In addition to the two comments made by the image, a woman is also depicted writing "Hacked by realloc()", which corresponds to the same person responsible for an attack on the site yesterday.
The same image also appears on SCO's backup site, thescogroup.com. It is not yet known whether this attack is related to the recent web site outages experienced on the site.
