Events
Distance teaching during the Corona crisis from March 2020
As part of the events surrounding the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, many Bavarian schools switched large parts of their teaching to mebis. The platform was equipped with additional server capacities at short notice.
Suspected hacker attack on March 16, 2020
The platform was targeted by a hacker in the morning hours of March 16, 2020. According to information from the website operator, a DDoS attack was carried out. This led to a failure of the website for users and made it difficult to start digital lessons after the school closings due to the Sars-CoV-2 virus.
Vulnerabilities released on August 21, 2020
In the early morning of August 21, 2020, the 0x90.space eV Hackerspace from Nuremberg published open security holes in Mebis. This happened because the operators of the learning platform had been informed of the vulnerabilities since May 21, 2020, but the 90-day responsive disclosure deadline of August 19, 2020 had passed.
