Landyzone is running version 3.8.1 Vbulletin but it doesn't say whether earlier versions are affected or just 3.8.6

Will dig out some info.

We're okay. Older versions aren't affected by this. Turns out to only be 3.8.6

The exploit also allowed whoever to access the admin username/password as well. So yeah, it could have had a detrimental effect.
