hahahaha sony done fucked up again

Joel Johnson — According to reports on Nyleveia.com, Eurogamer, and NeoGAF, Sony's PlayStation Network password reset system-the one just put in place after the PSN hack-has been compromised, allowing hackers to change a PSN password if they know your email and date of birth. Exactly the sort of information that was released in the original hack.

Sony has taken the password reset system offline. Kotaku has reached out to Sony for comment.

Update 1: The good news (as pointed out by NeoGAF's "Metalmurphy") is that if your account was compromised, you should have gotten an email from PSN that says your password has been reset.

Update 2: An official community moderator on the EU PlayStation forums notes the following services are offline:


•PlayStation.com
•PlayStation forums
•PlayStation Blog
•Qriocity.com
•Music Unlimited via the web client
•All PlayStation game title websites

Update 3: This is the purported exploit as provided to Kotaku. As PlayStation services are now offline, this exploit is no longer able to be executed.

Update 4: According to Sony's PlayStation blog, "Contrary to some reports, there was no hack involved. In the process of resetting of passwords there was a URL exploit that we have subsequently fixed."

Yet again Sony may of compromised customers accounts for a second time and it just adds insult to injury for Sony. Sony should of waited until it was ready and was positive that nothing like this could happen again, but they rushed to get PSN back online and this is what happens.
