An alert system administrator for PowerTech an ISP in Norway discovered a security vulnerability in Gallery yesterday. This security hole is a serious one; with it a malicious user can install a backdoor on your system and gain shell access with the same privileges as your webserver user. It's important that you realize that there are malicious people exploiting this bug *right* *now*. Read through to the bottom of this email for a list of IP addresses of sites that we believe may already be hacked, and ways to detect if you've been hacked.
Update: The most secure version of Gallery available is v1.3.1-cvs-b13. Upgrade ASAP.

Security hole in PHP
A security issue was found in all versions of PHP, including 3.x and 4.x versions.
If you are running PHP on your server (i'm sure you all here are 
), either upgrade your php or install the patch found at php.net.
If you can't upgrade your php, because your site is hosted by an ISP, tell them to do so as soon as possible.
This is NOT a security hole of XOOPS. It doesn't matter which php script you use on your server, since this is a problem in PHP itself.

Please read the full text of this artile. I posted the submission from Security Focus that gets very specific about what versions of PHP are affected and how to plug your current holes. I'm sending this to my ISP as we speak.

"Nukes" Security Hole !!
I run the site GroundZero. A while back it got hacked several times in a row. All that was done was replacing the index so not really a big deal but annoying. I now know how they were able to gain access to my site and they could very easily do it to some of yours...

Remove your install.php!
I checked several sites which uses XOOPS and found out some of them didn't delete the install script. The sites i checked received a email about it. Be warned!
