The hack in question was of the site hosting pages for "Hackers" the movie. 
The modifications took place during DEFCON III, you may read more about 
it via:

The origional "Hackers" page is located:

A quick mirror of the hacked page can be found on aleph1's site:

By *ALL* knowledgable reports, the gaping security whole was a world 
read/write NFS export (either administered by a total fool, or a media 
attempt to lure the inevidable).
