The forum in question (as posted by the OP and described in the article) is Connectusers.com. It is used by customers who use the Adobe Connect online conferencing service.

Hacker releases 150K Adobe emails and passwords to get the company’s attention

quote:
An Egyptian hacker claims to have broken into Adobe’s systems today, posting data for 150,000 people’s accounts. The reason? The hacker wants Adobe to pay more attention to reported vulnerabilities.

The hacker, known as Hima, says Adobe is too slow to respond to bug reports and that’s why it deserved to be hacked. Hima claims it takes five to seven days for Adobe to acknowledge a bug submission and three to four months for it to actually fix the problems. In the end, the hacker released 150,000 email addresses and passwords. These include Adobe employees, but also customers and partners, which may include members of the U.S. Military, Google, and NASA, according to the announcement Hima placed on Pastebin.
