Basically, the hacker uploaded a program file with a fake file extension to it. EX: Hackerprogram.exe.jpg <- the .jpg is fake to the file type, and is what allowed the hacker's program to be uploaded onto the forum's server (tricking the forum software to think it's .jpg image). Until this site is updated (this was resolved by Invision) were keepin' it closed.
