Re: My site got hacked by linuxploitcrew using a frontpage bug.

Thats is interesting, but its not a mojoPortal issue as mojoPortal does not require Front Page extensions. Its  just a server configuration issue if your server is configured with Front Page Extensions enabled its possible your server is vulnerable but it has nothing really to do with mojoPortal.

Best,

Joe

As Joe says, this is a configuration issue and my post was only meant as information so other people could protect themselves.

When searching for information about the hackers I found out that a lot of bigger sites have been hacked also using the same technique.

I am very interessted if anyone have more to contribute regarding configuration of IIS.
