Upgrade To 2.8.8 Gives Openx Admin Access? Options

[amp3dmoshpit]

I upgraded to Openx 2.8.8 last night and was going though thinks to make sure I didn't lose any settings when I came across the Admin Access page. Yesterday at the time of my upgrade a new admin account was created called 'openx-manager' This account has full admin privileges. What is this account for and why was it created? What happens if I delete it?

This happened to me without upgrading, I was still on 2.8.7. I deleted the admin account and blocked access to adserver.openx.org (the apparent source of the change). I assumed this was a hack attempt so I restored to last known good backup.

If this is actually legitimate then please let us know.

I got this strange Administrator Account too.
Till November 6 2011 i did not had such a account !

Strange thing is also that i was able somehow to Login into the OpenX-Market webpage direct by using my adserver to see how much Money i really earned on the OpenX-Market itself.

Now it show only the Quality Ad Tool when i log into OpenX_Market.

At nearly Same Time also my Ads were getting displayed very Strange. Asking me if anybody changed and Hi Jacked my good going Advertising which were booked for my Website on my Adserver by some Remote Control !

The very Big Problem is also that the email address admin@openx-team.org dont even work or it exist on the Net.
It is a fake address !

I will delete this very Specious Admin account !

That account is automatically added when you install the "OpenX Marketplace" plugin. If you remove it, the account is also removed.

I guess it's an internal account so it can manage the Marketplace ads that get shown on the sites?

And why does this strange Account then use a non functional non registered fake web domain email ?

I removed the Account now since more than a Day and still all works great with the Delevering of the Advertising.

I see also the Money in my Stats that i earned.

The Only thing that does not work is that for some strange reason i am not able
to see how Much Money i Earned direct in openx.com.

Before i discovered this Account i was able to login from my Adserver direct into
openx.com and look if the Amount of Money i earned with my Adserver is same with the Amount of the OpenX Market.

If you have this account you have been hacked (most likely before the upgrade).

What you want to do is IP/password protect using htaccess your entire admin directory to prevent any future attacks.

Then scan you're database for malware javascript.

Is this true, is the adserver being hacked or is it an email adres for the openx market plugin?

Please let me know
