Hi,


My log watch detected the following request on my Joomla site. --

    index.php?module=search&q=./../../../../../../../../etc/passwd

Is this sort of thing a known exploit?

Anyone know if it has been fixed or not?

Thanks,

Larry

the type of attack is very standard

it is called local file inclusion,

That is not even a joomla function.

Joomla functions would be options=com_something&task=sometask&q=something

It's more likely an exploit for some other set of PHP code and their just
scanning every website for it.

That is a VERY old issue from the PHP4 days... This script kiddie
should point their script over at Karjackistan or some such place
where everyone is still rocking Windows for Workgroups. Gah.
