XF 2.2 Administrator account disabled?

[jromaine]

Hey guys,
Im unsure what the issue is, but just in the past few minutes my account went to a status of unregistered/unconfirmed?, which meant that I couldn't access the forum. This is concerning as I'm the owner and administrator.

Am I being hacked? Is this an attempt to hijack the forum?

Is this a bug?

Both times I was able to log into the admin panel and change it back to "Registered" in which case I was okay, but again, this is a bit concerning.

@AndyB have you seen this before?

@Chris D any suggestions?

Im running v2.2.13

in any case, change your passwords first.

Do you have 2FA enabled?
Whitelist your IP, block any traffic.

That keeps anyone trying to tamper with your account out.

As you can see here, it seems my account was set to unregistered/unconfirmed?



For some strange reason also my name was changed, although I can tell those are values that I would've used at some point. No idea when though? Could this be a host running an update or transferring files or something?

I dont yet see anything suspicious in the logs.

No, that can’t be on your host.

When you check the admin logs, do you have different IP’s doing these actions?

Confirmed the IP address that made these changes appears to be mine, so Im unsure whats going on?

Do you have any automatic usergroup promotions?

No Cedric.

Andy B is kindly looking into it for me.

Ive just sent him a loom video outlining the issue, awaiting his response.

Its all very odd, hopefully it was just a bug or something?

Well hopefully you get it sorted out.
