YoChris Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Hello, I have a oscommerce website that is using an oscommerce version since 5-6 years ago. Is it possible to update it? I get hacked almost every month, defaced index, malware, phishing, etc. Please help, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Biancoblu Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Hi Regardless of what version you are using your number 1 priority now is to cleanse your site to remove the hacker's code, then secure it. If you're unsure how to do that you might want to invest into professional help because for as long as your site is vulnerable, you will keep getting hacked. To secure a 2.2 shop, read this thread: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/313323-how-to-secure-your-oscommerce-22-site/ Version 2.3.1 fixes a lot of security holes, but some work is required to upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3.1, namely the database which needs to be modified to work on 2.3.1, as well as the addons you might have installed. Here is an updated security thread you might find useful especially if you upgrade to 2.3.1: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/375288-updated-security-thread/ you will find a good list of what security addons are recommended for each osc version. ~ Don't mistake my kindness for weakness ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
