  • VirtueMart Version: LIVE 3.2.12 and TEST 4.0.12.10777 (looks good!)
Since sharing my website URLs here my websites have been constantly under attack - very specific attacks that know VirtueMart and are able to get past multiple required fields and managed to create over 2500 new fake accounts in a few minutes ... which I stopped with RECAPTCHA (never needed it before)... and then ever since I have been receiving non-stop brute force attempts at my admin logins ... it is so bad that it caused my CPU usage to spike and made my websites unresponsive ... I had to upgrade my server and add advanced security.
