Ac1db1tch3z (also known as AB for short) were a hacking group most well known for their 0day exploits in Linux[1][2], CVS[3][4] and supply chain attacks on UnrealIRCd[5] and ProFTPD[6].
UnrealIRCd
[edit]In November 2009 the source code copies for version 3.2.8.1 of UnrealIRCd were replaced with a version containing a backdoor.[5] This backdoor allowed an attacker to run any command on a server running the backdoored version of the software. The backdoor was discovered in June 2010.
