Hello everyone,

Over the past few days, we became aware of a series of vulnerabilities that were exploited to manipulate in-game resources, such as Diamonds, B$, and Outfits.
We take this extremely seriously, and we want to reassure you that these attack vectors have been fully identified and patched.

After a detailed audit of our systems, we implemented multiple layers of protection, including (but not limited to) enforcing CSRF validation, stricter server-side request verification, and enhanced integrity checks.
In simple terms: it’s no longer possible to interact with game mechanics outside the intended rules, even if someone tries using developer tools, custom scripts, or direct API requests (e.g., Postman).

Technical fixes include:

Full CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection across all endpoints.Improved backend validation — user identity, resource ownership, and action legitimacy are double-checked server-side.
Additional server-side logging and anomaly detection mechanisms to catch any future suspicious behavior immediately.


Outfit Recovery

We know how much time and effort you all invest in designing your Outfits.
If your avatar’s Outfit was affected by the attack, don't worry — we are already working on a recovery process.
All affected Outfits will be restored based on secure snapshots we made before the incident.


Cheaters Will Be Dealt With

Accounts that exploited the vulnerabilities to obtain Diamonds, B$, or other advantages unfairly will not be allowed to profit from their actions.
Illegally obtained resources will be removed, and offending accounts will face penalties according to our Terms of Service.
Fair play is, and always will be, a top priority for us.


Final Words

We want to thank you for your patience and support while we tightened security even further.
No system is ever 100% immune, but rest assured: we are continuously monitoring, improving, and hardening our platform to protect your gameplay and your progress.

Thank you for being part of our community!
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out.

— The Ximboland Team
