I am well aware how this exploit worked and it's long gone.

Either they used a new Flashchat exploit, which seems unlikely as no one else has reported anything, or they didn't use Flashchat.

If you have actual evidence then I suggest you post it on Tufats forum.

Hey guys,

Been reading this thread about being hacked via flashchat. I too had this happened to me. Every day, the server is hammered from mysql and my ISP is complaining about my site killing the server. They said there are a ton of mysql connections but I only have like 10 users on VB at any one given time.

How did you locate the trojan and get rid of it? I really need to get this off their server now. I am on a shared solution so I have limited access to what I can do on the server.

Is there any tools I can scan my database or php files with to locate this crap?

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can provide.

I was hacked a few months ago through flashchat too. They got into my server and messed up a few sites of mine and also clients sites too. I fixed everything but it made for hours of extra work..

I contacted the flashchat site and the guy got back to me and told me that was the nature of this type of script..

After that I uninstalled it and never looked back..... If it wasn't for the security holes it would have been a decent chat. My members liked it...

Is the newest version safer or is it still full of holes???
