Grmbl...little over two hours ago oxle was brutally defaced by a (group of) ****er(s) calling him/themselves Sinaritx....
I was lucky enough to check my site when I woke up, cause I wanted to fix the last thing of the SkyDrive mod, and then I saw it...
Method of defacement ; probably not through the forum, but through IIS. (IIS W3-logfiles do not show ANY information....) 6 new files existed in my root since last night 23:54 (server time) ; default.htm, default.html, index.htm and index.html (all being the same file), isko.html and sina.html. These last two files had this info:quote: Command Tribulation was here - www.commandt.org - Jesus Loves you
I've undone the defacement, by removing those files, but still, this has me worried....how did they come in, is it an IIS leak, when will it happen again? I've contacted my provider (Wiktel) and informed them of the defacement. Well, I've got to go to work now...let's hope the site doesn't get defaced again in the mean time. |

is the server yours or is it a shared hosting account ?
if it is not yours you should contact the host imediately as that looks like a server compromise, if there is nothing in the IIS logs then it probably wasn't done through IIS but possibly via an uploaded ftp client |

I have seen similar hacks before and it looks like a server hack rather than a site hack, however if you allow file uploads you should ensure that the directories you can upload to do not have any execute permissions under IIS or windows |

Indeed this is usually a server hack. One of the common entry points is corrupted Frontpage extensions. If you do have them installed and do not use them, remove them. |

More than a bit disturbing to hit you in the morning, Marcel! (and not the prettiest picture I have seen today, either!) I'm glad you got it straightened out. |
