I submitted to Yahoo! earlier some documentation detailing both the
"shellshock"/bash vulnerability and how my research on it lead me to
discovering that Yahoo!'s internal servers had been compromised, and that
the individuals were working on traversing their network. It was not until
I contacted several media outlets and the FBI that they actually responded.
However, once they responded, they did confirm the servers were breached.
Their answer to the lack of contact methods available is absolutely absurd
in my opinion. In fact, the entire response was a joke. The fact that they
informed me I could have used the bug bounty system to report it - though
it's not eligible for a bounty - is equivalent to saying - "Thanks, but so
we're clear, we don't owe you crap, but let us know if anything else comes
up." Perhaps if they weren't busy paying CEO's absurd salaries, they could
afford to hire an IT staff that's not fresh out of ITT Technical Institute
and sporting pull-ups.

Please see the rest of everything related to this at

www.futuresouth.us/yahoo_response.jpg for their response. Email copy has
been attached.

Non-authoritative answer: Name: dip4.gq1.yahoo.com Address: 63.250.204.25

Non-authoritative answer: Name: api118.sports.gq1.yahoo.com Address:
10.212.240.43

These are the two servers that were 100% positively identified as being
compromised, with the dip4.gq1.yahoo.com server being the initial point
of entry via Shellshock.
