Title: Malware on aros-exec.org?
Post by: Piru on March 30, 2009, 08:31:17 AM

What happened when Google visited this site?

    Of the 19 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 9 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2009-03-28, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2009-03-28.

    Malicious software is hosted on 1 domain(s), including 84.244.138.0/.

    This site was hosted on 1 network(s) including AS26347 (DREAMHOST).

This thing needs to be sorted out. Any of the site admins around to check what's going on? It could well be that the website has been compromised and is now hosting drive-by attack content. If the web site has been compromised, it could mean that all the accounts have been stolen aswell. If this is the case, all passwords should be reset (depending on the forum software being used the passwords might be using encryption without salt, in which case the weaker passwords can be cracked with rainbow tables). Else the malware might reappear soon after being removed...

Yes the site was hacked and someone managed to insert malware into the code, the site works fine now, however, google wont take another look at the site untill you follow one of theyr procedures wich i havent had time to do just yet.

Aros-exec appears to be back up and free from Malware.  I don't think the Aros-exec Admins had that in mind for spending on doing something for their weekend.  :-(
