webadmin.php upload hack
« on: June 26, 2006, 05:21:41 pm »

Someone has been uploading a .rar file to my photo album (public permissions all to post). Inside the rar is a file called webadmin.php which looks like a web file manager. Does this mean someone is trying to hack my photo album? if so, are there security messures in place to block this sort of activity? Thanks.

Yes. Please upgrade to 1.4.8. Search for any other backdoor files and remove them. Change your admin password.

Set the allowed filetypes to whatever you like in config.
