Techcrunch.com is down since morning, and the site has just updated this with an official confirmation of the hack (you are advised not to visit the link mentioned on the image above!)
Earlier tonight techcrunch.com was compromised by a security exploit.
We’re working to identify the exploit and will bring the site back online shortly.
While its highly unlikely that this is a WordPress security hole, numerous plugins customized by Techcrunch can be one of the possible loopholes.
