This worm got both of my sites a day or so ago. Does anyone know anything else about it?

I was using PHP nuke 7.2 on one site and 7.3 on the other. It got both of them.

If your phpBB is up to date the last patch:

should stop this. If your unsure you can add this into a .htaccess file in your main root.


RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)highlight=\%2527
RewriteRule ^.*$   -   [F,L]

Thanks for the info.

I have a nooby question... well more like a few questions.

1. Can I just install phpBB 2.0.11 into phpNuke 7.3? Do I need a script for updating the database as well?

2. If I do need scripts can I use the ones included in the phpnuke 7.6 patched version to upgrade the forums?

I believe it just returns a forbidden page to people/systems trying to run the exploit.

1,) No
2.) Yes

The preblem is the highlight= part of the search feature. This basically rewrites it before it can get in.
