obbm Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Every time I refresh BC my antivirus warns and denys access to http://secfbicheker.com/?1 . It is apparently listed in the database of suspicious URLs. Google says it's a malicious link. Where has this link come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Hi Dave. Someone hacked the front page of the site a few days ago but it's all been cleaned up. I expect the 'delete cache & cookies' routine should help as this is the only report of an anti-virus being triggered that we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankdave Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 My Kapersky is warning of the same thing today, it was NOT doing so yesterday, suggesting the problem is newer than a few days ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99ster Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'm getting it as well - on every page... And, to be frank, that casual throw away response of "[i]Someone hacked the front page of the site a few days ago but it's all been cleaned up.[/i]" is a little worrying as that means someone has gained access to either the FTP login details for the entire site or the CMS control panel. WTF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiOgon Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 This morning only - Google Chrome won't let me run Basschat - Malware warning, I'm here on ie8, very slow. Haven't had much trouble with the last few days, this seems like something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I've emailed Ben to let him know. I'm not getting anything flagged though and I use Chrome constantly. My history deletes after a day though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Last time this happened it was because the site was effectively added to a list when it was hacked, but once it was fixed the name remained on the list until we requested it to be cleared. I also remember it being the case that it's very unlikely that any data on users or accounts was accessed as they are behind a lot of security. The 'hack' merely accesses some basic front end software. ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obbm Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 So is the link [url="http://secfbicheker.com/?1"]http://secfbicheker.com/?1[/url] supposed to be there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Not sure but that could be the thing we have now cleared, but awaiting news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShergoldSnickers Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) The offending link is in the page code in a hidden iframe of dimensions 0px by 0px - I've highlighted the link in green.

fealey Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Hi Guys, Someone will have taken advantage of a vulnerability in IP.Board and injected some code into the site. This is how to fix if you're running a flavour of Linux as the host: [CODE] find . -name "*.php" -type f -exec sed -i '/eval(base64_decode(/d' {} \; [/CODE] Make sure you perform a backup first! What's happened is that an encrypted string of code will probably be added to the header of each PHP file that runs the site. e.g. base64_decode([i]then a load of [/i][i]nonsense[/i]); This is then read by the client which puts that iframe mentioned above into the site and tries to infect visiting computers. My code above goes through the files and strips it out - but please don't hold me responsible if it breaks something!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
