  • [CMS] I've been hacked

    By dark-knight... He's deleted all the files out of my publich-html... Lots of custom jobs too.

    And no I don't have a backup as I thought steves automatic back up mod was doing the job, obviously not as the last back up is in 2011. My fault I know..

    But still screwed as in what to do. These idiots do my head in, twice ive been hacked on vbulletin!¬!!!

    The first thing to do is to check with your hosting and see if they maintain a backup for any length of time. Many hosts have redundant servers.

      What about the db, did it remain intact?

      About the custom work you had, if you have no backups of them then I am afraid that they are lost.

        If you have no back up then there isn't anything you can do.
        Ask your host if they have a back up, and also get them to check the server logs to see if they can discover how they got in.

        if they DO have a back up and can reinstate it for you, change all passwords immediately....including admin cp, ftp, database....everything!

            Try reupload all the default vbulletin files. Also disable all hooks via the config file. There's a chance your database may still be intact.

            If you do the above and your database is working then back it up! At least you have a starting point this way.
