This actually affected EVERY SINGLE mybb forum, which is pretty sad...
We weren't affected for 2 reasons:

1) No one logged in the admin CP the affected day
2) We have removed the built in mybb backup feature to avoid stuff like this

There should never be any major changes possible without agreement between at least 3 people through their accounts, and no single account should be able to do stupid stuff like this.
Damn.

Well good job with #2
Good to know we are safe.
