I am running 3.5.4, so now I know which ones to remove...didn't even think about those numbers meaning that..oops!
Thanks for the help everyone! |
The little buggers used the hole to install a shell script and an IRC relay service; they then went through my web directory and replaced all my index files with "you've been hacked" files. It took me a few hours to get everything off the server; but then they struck again via a security flaw in SiteBuilder - fortunately I caught that one live and stopped them before they could do anything.
You are only as secure as your weakest script; if you are like me and like to offer your users a variety of add-ons to your websites, then it makes sense you would want to keep up on any updates to those pieces. I was a version or two behind on FlashChat (update a mere few months ago). |
is not only thru flashchat i don't even have that installed a new user subscribed to my forum and pluged this in the post look at this post here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=125628 and look at the picture of what that user did but i beat him to the punch i was down for like 3 mins and back online

That's why I built www.flasherize.com, the chat can't be hacked.

if you have high traffic, use IRC server. its much better and stable for high high high traffic forums.
i went from holding 100+ users in the flash chat and laggy as hell to 600+ users in the irc server smooth sailing. |
