Somebody Uploaded A File Onto My Hosting Account [resolved]

bk2070
This has really scared me a little. I went into my cpanel to see a file that I did not install, in my File manage. It was called "SubVersion." Pretty confused what it's all about, but I found a link to the site

http://subversion.tigris.org

I don't know what it is, or how it got there. Can anybody PLEASE help me.

Also, it seemed like somebody messed with one of my folders, and chom'd it to 755, when it was 777. This is really freaking me out a little, I think somebody has gotten ahold of my hosting account.

If a folder has all permissions allowed (i.e. 0777), then this should not be something you should be surprised about. 0777 allows anyone to do whatever they want to that folder, which includes creating their own folders and files. Having it changed back to 0755 was probably a smart thing on their side that is beneficial to you. However, this new file called "SubVersion" should only scare you if it was created outside of the folder that had 0777 permissions and if it can execute something on the server side. Should i assume you got rid of the file?

as a precaution i would check your FTP account settings to ensure that no secondary accounts have been set up (in the event of a breech) and then change all your passwords, FTP and hosting passwords just to be sure.

Have you checked the contents of the file to make sure its not malicious? And i too would get rid of that file or at the very least ZIP it so its safe and no-one can access it. That way you have a safe copy to investigate if you need to.

Oh. I think I figured the problem out.

Looks like Opaque acccessed my account to see if he could extract .zipped files, since I opened up a support ticket with. Stupid tongue.gif

As for the incorrectly chomd files, that was a co-admin, I think, trying to install a mod.

    Domains and hosting (6)
    I went on the billing site, to approximate how much much my hosting would cost a year and it came
    out to $39.71 USD. The thing that REALLY drove the price up on this was addon domains (I chose to
    have 5 for $23.80). This was more than hlaf of the yearly cost. Are there plans to keep the prices
    for the addon domains the same, or if they will be lowered? Here is my plan right now: QUOTE

  7. What Is Vps Web Hosting?
    Virtual Private Server and Hosting (6)
    This is probably a dumb question, but what exactly is VPS hosting? After reading up on wikipedia I
    found out it's essentially a server with a bunch of split operating systems on it. The article
    also said generally a VPS hosting service gives its users superlevel-access so they could run any
    software on the Operating System. Is that true? If it is VPS hosting would be very useful to me and
    my clan because we need a dedicated system to run a server im developing (writing it in .NET). So I

    Hi! I've been hosted in trap17 for almost 4 months now. In the beginning, I tried to setup a
    WebDisk to directly transfer files from my computer to my hosting account, but I didn't manage
    to make it work. It might have been from my Vista's weird firewall settings, or my ISP settings,
    I have no idea. Anyway, I used the File Manager since, as I don't have a lot of files on my
    site. Needless to say, it is really annoying when I do just some little changes and I have to go
