Megachan.net Imageboards

Recently, 2 exploits were announced for Kusaba - they allowed someone to remotely upload files and then execute them. This was done by exploiting two vulnerabilities found in vulnerability in paint_save.php and load_receiver.php

In any case, the forks have all stated that they have fixed the bugs in their releases, after several *chan sites got hosed (MC wasn’t affected). However, Harrison (who’s doing the Kusaba X fork) has released a standalone patch here, if you still want to patch Kusaba without migrating to one of the forks.

Please note that I won’t provide support regarding the patch, you’ll need to talk to him regarding that.

I’ve being using Kusaba all the way back since it was still called Trevorchan, and thus have gotten used to its quirks and bugs.

Christchan got raided and all pools were closed due to AIDS. Lol.

It’s more likely than you think.

One of the nice things about the *chan scene is that people are starting to get creative. I think it’s because people have gotten sick of 4chan clones, but whatever the reason you’ve now got sites like Bookchan, which is all about books and Horrorchan, which is dedicated to horror images, movies, etc. However, one of the weirdest ones I’ve seen is Christchan, one dedicated to, well, Christianity (and in a positive way too).
