Hacked

| | Comments (2)


Way #8,428 to tell if your server has been hacked: the sshd binary is a 4 meg executable with perms of 777.

Way #8,429: there is an account in /etc/passwd that has a shell of "cd /usr/bin; ftp <ip>".

Yes, a fun day at work.

Not really. A server at work, still not sure how they got in (if they got it). Due to the non-working-ness of the sshd binary I'm going to guess they didn't actually get shell on the box (hell, *we* couldn't even get shell on the box without being on the console :)
