server hacked for spamming.
Hi,one of my clients server got serverly hacked..and was used for spamming..
now what exactly is happening is..
i think that due to some vunerebilty in phpbb the hacker got access to the tmp directory and was sending emails using nobody through my clients domain
from multiplenames@domain.com
now i tried to find a file which said that .. by phpHS and removed it..
i had permisison i set on it so the root user was non even able to remove it. I changed the permisison and it was removed.
but still the emails are being send using the server;s smtp.
does anybody has any idea how to deal with me.
the file i deleted had the starting contents as under
