That's the msg at top and bottom of the admin page, all the module logos, gone...

Admin can be accessed by direct link i.e.
www.xoopsurl.com/admin.php or
www.xoopsurl.com/modules/system/admin.php and everything is there, mods, data, even the site seems normal to anon and registered users.

So what did he f-up and how do I replace it? I'll deal with the upgades (it's a 2.0.9.2 install) and beefing up security soon after.

Thanks in advance,
DJ.
P.S. How about some turkish xoopsters find this asswipe and break his fingers

He possibly replaced the cache/adminmenu.php file. You can delete it, then access the admin section again. You'll see "this is the first time you enter the admin"...etc. When you press the submit button a new adminmenu.php file is generated.

Hopefully that's all they've done.

I was hacked by this same hacker about 6 months ago.

It seems that he had placed index.html files into every directory.

I found it easiest to restore the site from a backup.

I am a Turkish xoopser too..and admin of one of the Turkish support sites..I don't know who is Kartal..but if you use 2.0.9.2 he can hack your site again and again because for this version some bugs are very popular in Turkey..and also putting an index.html file in all directories is very popular..so I think you must upgrade your XOOPS and be very careful about chmods

I would definitely advise any user with a version before 2.0.16 to upgrade.... although obviously test your installation first, and backup all your existing site & data....

There has been a LOT of security updates since the days of 2.0.9
