I have been getting a lot of hacking attempts from this server:
server.softjin.com
They have offices in the U.S. as well as India, Japan, Singapore. I have reported them to [url]
and if you are in the U.S. and have proof of hacking attempts from this company, please post them here -
I am currently looking to compile a list of complaints so I can send another complaint report to ic3.gov
Our VPS is being hit several times a day with hacking attempts. We have been actively monitoring error logs and can see the failed attempts. I was just wondering if there is a better way to track such attempts or another system log that wold provide additional info on these attacks? or maybe some 3rd party logging scripts?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI went today to my apache error log, and noticed that those scum lowlifes hackers trying to hack my server every day for at least 100 times!!!
What a disaster!
Examples of urls they trying to use:
- http://usuarios.arnet.com.ar/larry123/safe.txt?
- http://uploaded.justfree.com/id.txt?
- http://nukedclx.info/php/base
Is there anything that can be done to prevent this mor*** from even trying to hack (except putting a bullet in his/their head)?
i have a server and these days my server is hacking by the hacker the problem is, chmod 777, there are many dir's with the chmod 777 and hacker is uploading files and creating folders under the folder which is created with chmod 777, now i just want to know how i can block the hacker, and is there any way to allow the scripts which in my server and not allow any other scripts to upload files in my server
i have linux server
Purely by accident I logged in a few minutes ago onto my server and ran a 'ps -ax'
At the very end I had the following lines:
29803 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/bfd -s
29804 ? D 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/bfd/tlog /var/log/secure sshd.4

Plesk 11.5.30 Update #47
When I look in a directory password protected by the Plesk Panel, I don't see an .htaccess file...
So, how does Plesk password protect directories?
And, is it possible to add functionality that would limit number of login attempts, and block an offending IP for a period of time?
Every time I log on plesk 11.09 I get an email from admin saying that due to maximum number of failed login attempts for admin, the account was blocked for 30 minutes.
First, I do not get failed login attempts, I log in every time.
Two, the account is not blocked, I can log in, out and back in as many times as I want without problem except that I get this email everytime.
today i have a lot of hacking on my server .
i searched for shell scripts on the server , and i found alot of it :
[root@host svt]# ls -l
total 48
-rw-r--r-- 1 koky koky 6700 May 7 08:14 s.php
lrwxrwxrwx 1 koky koky 48 May 7 08:07 s1 -> /home/user1/public_html/vb/includes/config.php

-rwxr-xr-x 1 koky koky 23005 May 7 07:58 svt.svt
as u can see he uploaded the files on this account "koky" and redirected this files to user1,user2,user3,user4 and user5 accounts .
and he could read the config.php and then hacked the site easly !!
i read befor that the reason of this is Perl on the server , and the way to solve it to edit httpd.conf by adding this in it :
<Directory "/home">
Options -ExecCGI -FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes Limit FileInfo Options=IncludesNOEXEC,Indexes,MultiViews,SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
</Directory>
and then restart the http :
service httpd restart
i did all of that , and when i restarted http it said :
[root@host www]# service httpd restart
Syntax error on line 51 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'Options=IncludesNOEXEC,Indexes,MultiViews,SymLinksIfOwnerMatch', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
and all the sites got down !
i deleted :
<Directory "/home">
Options -ExecCGI -FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes Limit FileInfo Options=IncludesNOEXEC,Indexes,MultiViews,SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
</Directory>
from httpd.conf and then sites worked correctly .
so you all know my problem now ! and i think alot of you have the same problem , so i wish we all try to find any solution for this and knows the best way to protect pel on the server .
a site i manage for a client is being hacked every couple of days, its not the actual site but the hosts server thats getting attacked, all sites on that server, well actually all thier servers.
They have made no attempt to sort this problem, i report it they look at the site and say "site loads fine for us" which it does.
All index files are having a base64 encode line written after the <body> tag, this adds hundreds of spam links which are hidden with display:none; they also add .html to application types in htaccess for php to run in these files too.
Problem is, i am moving the site to another host but cannot change the nameservers to the new host's untill the client returns from a holiday, so i must keep the site up on the insecure host for now.
I am removing the spam code almost daily, is there anyway i can stop this attack happening for the time being, the host does nothing.
As well all know there has been a hypervm exploit which may have taken down fsckvps and other hosts have been having attacks. If possible install any program that will warn you of a connection to your server and or provide input on what it may or may not be.
I myself Just had a blank php format file uploaded to a clients vps and It tried accessing other vps servers. As far as I know the ip was rapidly changing and untraceable (this may or may not be from the exploit), If anyone else is having hypervm attacks or server attacks please post here so instead of working within our own company's we are working as a group of over 10 thousand+ wht members to solve this issue ourselves.
(mods may move this wherever)
my referals logs that I keep on a website, I have come accross the following this morning, Is this some one who is trying to gain access to the server etc.

I have the Ip addresses that they have come from and it resolves to a Russian (I Think) website.
Im just looking through all the folders on the server now and no data has been comprimised as far as I can see and im going to use the query strings in order to block access and also deny access via ip address.
alot of Databases in my server was hacked
Hacker can edit tables
Are there any any ports in MYSQL4?
Alot of VB forums have hacking every day
In fact All hackers couldn't hack databases or files
They only edit one template in style like header or forumhome
So Uploading style again resolve the problem
But How can I disallow them to to edit templates
Any functiond to disable or rule for mod_sec ?

What can you say from the above log entries?
I keep reading all these devastating posts about people's machines being compromised. Are most of these hacks due to weak passwords of administrators or clients which end up getting bruted, or are there known exploits for cpanel/plesk/apache etc? I am setting up an apache-only server with a really secure password, but I am wondering if it could still be breached using an exploit.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI had done a program in early 2006 for a site in php-mysql. At the time of doing the code, The code written was not so standard and it contained uninitialized variables used for include file paths (eventhough values are assigned to it before using) and the "sess" folder was created within the website folder. Also the parameters for the SQL query were not escaped, but everything was working fine.
And now i was informed that the insecure code in my program caused the server crash and i have to pay the penalty for the same. Can anyone let me know whether the below code / keeping the session variables within a folder inside the /www/ will make the sites hosted on the server where this program runs to stop/crash for ever ?

Is security really that critical? If so, why are some of the largest software companies providing such a bad example for the rest of the industry? Why would someone want to target my website? Why is security often overlooked?
These are all common questions that arise on a daily basis within the online industry.
The rest of this article will provide some detailed answers, along with practical examples and true scenarios.
I've spoken with numerous hackers over the past short while. I can't count the number of times I've heard the line "Ignorant site owners deserve to be hacked". In my opinion, that's like claiming that cars without alarms deserve to be stolen, or homes without alarm systems deserve to be burglarized. It's not just wrong - it's illegal.
Security risks and vulnerabilities affect the entire online industry. When a single website is hacked, there are usually multiple other victims. This is most commonly seen with widely distributed software. A potential attacker has the ability to install the software on a test environment, locate the vulnerabilities, then attack random victims even before anyone else is aware of the potential exploits. Once a vulnerability is located, the attacker simply needs to search for other environments using the same software, and within minutes there are hundreds, often thousands of potential victims.
Typically, in the race to market, software providers are encouraged to release their products as soon as the applications are usable. Critical development procedures are often overlooked or intentionally bypassed. One such miss is an application vulnerability assessment. Although the product may be usable, the effects of a vulnerable application could be severe.
Sadly, nobody is "off limits" when it comes to hacking. Most hackers feel safe committing online crime, since the online industry has evolved much faster than the security industry. Many applications are not created with the intent to recognize hacking attempts. Some hackers view their actions as a competition - Who can attack the most valuable website? Who can exploit the most user databases? In many cases, these attacks are bragged about within the hacker's immediate network. The competitive nature of these hacking groups has become so severe, there have been reports of attacks between competing organizations.
You might ask, "If I use industry standards, won't my environment be secure?". The short answer: no, but it helps. Hackers are not restricted by industry standards. Most security companies only implement new standards once at least one victim is reported. This often gives hackers plenty of time to locate other vulnerable environments, and before long, the number of victims can increase rapidly. Hackers are some of the most innovative individuals within the online industry. The most logical way to combat them is to use similar methodology for security purposes.
that my vbulletin forum redirect to another site
i upgrade to last version but i still have the same error
i have root access and want to know how i can restrict direct to another server
apparently a mod_deflate patch has been available for apache 1.3.37 for some time but since I rely on cpanel as a huge time/knowledge saver, I'd like to hack it into buildapache/easyapache so it's an option just as easy as mod_gzip is (with a simple checkbox)
after poking around I learned that all the magic happens in /home/cpapachebuild/buildapache
I've studied how mod_gzip is activated/installed but some steps are beyond me
mod_deflate for 1.3.37 is here [url]the critical files inside are of course mod_deflate.patch and mod_deflate.c
so I assume stick those files into a directory under buildapache, but where do I hack in the patch and build steps?
