Our system administrators came across such weakly secured account on other servers as well. So in order to avoid any further injection attempts, we changed passwords of all the accounts. We were also in the process of sending out emails to the customers with the new passwords for their accounts.

Eukhost offers the most sincere & heartfelt apologies for any inconvenience caused due to this sudden but unavoidable action. We only did this to ensure the safety of our customers.
What time were the passwords changed ?

btw, you also changed the passwords where they were 100% strong !
