This wasn't our web server. This was OdiliTime's personal server that OdiliTime happened to have transferred a backup to while we were doing maintenance on the endchan server just in case something went wrong. SSL or a lack thereof wasn't involved.

In any case, we got lucky and I've made sure to rip OdiliTime a new asshole over this shit. I'm guessing that the attack was either a scam by a script kiddie or a greyhat trying to spook people into securing their shit. Like OdiliTime said, nothing was uploaded, so the odds strongly favor no DB leak occurring. The notification to change your passwords is more out of paranoia (e.g. some crazy NSA shit transmitting the data offsite without the transmission being logged by the external monitoring equipment; not likely) than anything else.

In other words, shit got fucked up, but odds are it'll be fine.
