==== Interesting asides ==== In the research for this article, a comment was found<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210213213859/https://games.slashdot.org/story/03/06/24/0531236/ragnarok-online-hacked-user-data-leaked</ref> from a Slashdot user which indicated that the previous (or current) attack utilised the SQL Slammer injection vulnerability, which was widely used by the Slammer Worm, a piece of malware which also abused this vulnerability. The RO server is 31MB. I know this because I know someone that got into their system using the SQL exploit (this was a month before Slammer used the same technique). He retrieved the actual server software and released this on the net so that anyone could emulate the server (if you had 1GB+ ram). He has done a lot to the RO folks, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was him that did it.
