Finally found out the attack that was used on informationplug!! In case you dont know informationplug was hacked and that attack was a SQL injection. As a person trying to step their cyberskills up through hands on experience, this was actually a good way to learn about this attack and where to go from here. So to be more specific, this specific SQL injection keeps the informationplug banner on the display screen longer then what its supposed too. As shown below:

With this being known, informationplug is still young, growing and looking forward to pushing through this technical issue. Thanks for coming to the site!! Further research will be done to eliminate this technical issue. | Hackslpaining | March 4, 2017
