There's a nasty worm that exploits a vulnerability in older versions of PHP. massassi.net got hit with it and was down for about 20 hours. I suggest someone bug our webhost to make sure to keep PHP updated. Smile

Thanks for the info,

I don't know about a worm exploiting a PHP vuln; can you give more specific info? The only worm I've seen in the news (Santy) affects phpBB and we're already patched against it.

Cheers. Smile

Yeah, it's the one that hits urldecode() through viewtopic.php.
