Due to our home page not loading, I found an exploit on our website with the file Backdoor:PHP/C99shellmbedded in the index.php file.
I had no such file, or a server running on my local computer. When I downloaded
the file and scanned the file, I was able to identify the malware AND the remote site
that was controlling the embedded script. I determined the IP address of the
xploiting site.
Is there a tool to scan these identified sites that will determine if they are running
the malware? Also, is there a site with a listing of these malware sites? No surprising,
the exploit orginated in China with a .com and an .cn domain.
I have added their IP addresses to be blocked via the control panel, but I suspect there
are thousands of IP addresses actively working on embedding similar exploits.
