My webspace was hacked. So, 1and1 sent me this e-mail...

Quote:
67.76.163.60 - - [13/Jan/2009:10:13:24 -0500] "GET
//xoops_lib/modules/protector/oninstall.php?mydirname=a()%7B%7Dinclude($

The above was taken from your access logs. It shows that
//xoops_lib/modules/protector/oninstall.php
was used to perpetrate the hack.

Please contact the developers for this script/application. You will
likely need to install a version update and/or security patch to prevent
further abuse.

Also, reply to this email in acknowledgement of this issue. Failure to
do so can result in your account being locked and possibly terminated.

I disabled the following scripts:


./CK/images/banners/xoops_banner.php
./CK/images/banners/test/natwest/nwolb.com/Login.html
./CK/modules/protector/oninstall.php
./CK/modules/AMS/class/class.php
./CK/themes/default/icons/infos.php
./CK/themes/default/styleMAC.php
./CK/xoops_data/configs/dataconfigs.php
./CK/xoops_lib/modules/protector/oninstall.php
./CK/xoops_lib/modules/protector/security.php


I'm a noob... Help!

What version of Protector did you use?

Was Protector installed outside the document root?

Did you have the .htaccess file uploaded?

I tried searching. Thanks for directing me.

By the way, are you the same McDonald as in MyTube (XoopsTube)? if so, i haven't been able to access your forum same user name (cerokool). I never got the e-mail and haven't found the option to send it again.

Yes, I'm the same McDonald.
Don't bother about that forum, it will close soon because of bankruptcy of the hoster.

That protector vuln was posted on 1/9:https://xoops.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=4601

I'm not sure how 1&1 works, but with my webhost, they put my web spaces under a public_html/site directory by default. What I did was then create an unpublic_html directory following a similar structure and put the xoops_data and xoops_lib directories under there.
