Looks like somebody has managed to edit one of the community pages:

http://maemo.org/community/community...-edit-a-page-/

Can somebody fix it?

Thanks for showing us... I can't find an easy way to edit the page however. :/

Admins, is there a backup or something? This sucks...

I've reverted it back to Revision 1.7.

(No, I have nothing to do with maemo.org - I'm just a normal member.)

Thanks for reporting! Maybe some pages should be only editable by credible authors. For example, you see same on Freedesktop.org. Heck there I could not even fix spam because I had no account...

I thought it wasn't possible to edit unless you have an account? In fact that's what the (now restored) page in that link says.. you're supposed to be logged in to even see the edit menu. The history only lists IP addresses for those garbage editions.

That is very interesting and disturbing... Someone made it into a page of spam links. There's a security hole in Midgard, methinks.

Last CVE for Midgard I found is CVE-2008-4630 but this news item from 20090427 lists important fixes. Culprit could also be one of the components Midgard depends on, like Glib2 (e.g. CVE-2009-3289).

Even logged in, I didn't get ANY edit options whatsoever or else I would have fixed it myself.
