ChopperCharles Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 It looks like someone uploaded a jpeg with executable code inside, and then was somehow able to get it to execute. It didn't appear to do much. My cache was corrupted, but that was it. But it's disturbing to me that jpeg files are created with chmod 777, which is read, write, and execute for all users. jpegs don't need execute. How can I rectify this in my IPB install so this doesn't happen again? Charles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwa Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 jpeg files are data filetypes... They don't execute anyway... They aren't handled in that manner. You should make sure you have proper .htaccess protection in place to ensure that executable files can't be run from directories they shouldn't be running from... You should see an option in your security center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
