Help securing a server : Owned by W4n73d H4ck3r

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

One server that hosts several domains ended up with the message "Owned
by W4n73d H4ck3r".    While still performing an audit I am very
confident that this was caused by a php script (it is a linux server)
uploaded via FTP or by a defective site hosted (perhaps vulnerable
version of a CMS).

The symptons seem clear, files owned by apache are vulnerable and the
attacker script scanned the web tree and started running.

So, basically two questions:
- how to detect where this came from
- how to prevent it from happening again

Thanks.
