The UN was defaced with a political message and hackademix has published it was via a sql injection vulnerability.
"While most of us may agree with the message, many will object to the
spelling, and specifically to the dont used instead of don.t.
There.s a technical reason for the missing apostrophe, though, because
messing with this very character (.) is part of the technique
apparently used by the attackers.
As you can easily verify by opening this URL, the site is
vulnerable to an attack called SQL Injection.
This is a very well known kind of vulnerability, fairly easy to avoid
and very surprising to find in such a high profile web site."
