MangaDex manga site temporarily shut down after cyberattack

MangaDex is one of the largest manga scanlation (scanned translations) sites where visitors can read manga comics online for free. MangaDex has suffered a series of outages since March 17th. A threat actor gained access to the site after stealing an admin user’s session token through a website vulnerability. The attacker then published the site’s source code on GitHub using the alias ‘holo-gfx’ MangaDex temporarily shut down the site while they work on and launched a more secure ‘v5’ version of the site.
