IMPORTANT: Security notice for oxwall.org users

Posted on by

We have reasons to believe that some user data on oxwall.org might have been compromised by a malicious third party through WordPress software. Right now the problem has been eliminated and security measured taken, however everyone on oxwall.org also needs to co-operate to stay safe.

  1. We strongly advise all Oxwall.org users to change their password;
  2. Developers and designers who have items in the Oxwall Store are also STRONGLY ADVISED to check their items’ data to be correct, including financial settings.

We will be monitoring website activity closely to prevent this from happening again and we appreciate your understanding.

Thanks,
Oxwall team

P.S. Yes, you NEED to go change your password, like, right now.
