signature pic been hijacked
« on: July 28, 2009, 17:02:13 »
Hello Cat, it looks like our signature pic has been hijacked on photo bucket, I've removed mine until I get to the bottom of it. Andy-V-Strom any ideas mate.

There are some pics in the Gallery that have also changed to that feck.com pic. Also, some posts that I have read seem to have "feck" randomly inserted into the post. If this is the case, the forum might be compromised (please note that I'm not saying that it "is compromised".) Anyways, it's probably better if someone with the proper access checks it out and informs us?

svpower - this might be linked to the L U C K problem in the other thread.

As an observation, so far the only posts that I have noticed that have the random "feck" inserted were ones posted by minkyhead. That could also be a complete coincidence as they were also all first posts in a thread (maybe he just starts more threads than others and the chances are bigger that his posts have the random inserts.)

Thanks folks,

The Forum appears secure, it could be that Photobucket has a problem?

Andy, I suspect you have a problem with the phpbb skin, looks like it randomly changes images to the "feck.com" one and also changes any words ending in U C K to feck.  Got an old backup somewhere?

Another idea - clear out everything the ..cache directory

And another - replace ..viewtopic.php and ..templatesviewtopic_body.tpl from backup

(Be sure to take a backup through admin first ofc)

Can't say I've noticed the random insertions in any posts, nor any pictures been hijacked.

Are you all sure that your local machines / browsers haven't been compromised?

Hmm I can't see any problems with the skin or find any evidence that the phpBB directory has been compromised  :shrug:

I had a simular thing happen to my forum a couple of months ago by a porn site called gaydar.com

these porn sites/hackers are always messing with php scripts which makes our sites quite vulnerable. They even managed to get my main server password. Something you might want to change Andy mate.

Like Andy says though its looking like the problem is with photo bucket that could explain the pic but how are they changing the words have they been at you word censurer  Andy or do you think they are doing it in some sort of remote way.

To be on the safe side in the end I contacted my server people and retrieved a backup of my site from 2 weeks earlier  ###
