First Forensic Forum defaced

The "First Forensic Forum" an open forum for digital forensic practitioners and security professionals has been defaced. Good thing they have no shortage of forensics and security professionals to evaluate the situation and track down the vulnerabilities that were exploited :-).

It goes to show you this sort of thing can happen even to the best in the field (security professionals).

They were using Zeus webserver at the time.

Which, oddly enough, seems to have a pretty clean security track record. So it might have been human error (permissions and that sort of thing) or badly written applications. Some of the errors on the website seem to indicate a badly written PHP application.


Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening '/content/StartupHostPlus/f/3/f3.org.uk/web/protector_core/modules/protector/include/precheck.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /content/StartupHostPlus/f/3/f3.org.uk/web/mainfile.php on line 104


And again, he has been keeping himself pretty busy lately:
