Blockadvertising Hack/Phishing attempt

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to warn all users in case there is a module issue but our site was attacked and a phishing attempt setup under the blockadvertising module.  We immediately caught it and not sure if it is related to this module specifically, a recent module update of another item or access given to theme support.  Double check your files for recent updates.

Yes of course.  We were notified by Netcraft that a phishing attack was coming from our site.  I went to URL and found a page on our site looking like Seller Central on Amazon.  We quickly deleted folder and all related files, ran scans, blocked ips. Someone created a bunch of files/folders inside the blockadvertising module with a very complex collection of login pages and also put another file in root called "jaguar.php."  Here is the notification.

We have discovered a phishing attack located on your network:

/modules/blockadvertising/img/fixtures/-/-/Amazon/
