I’ve been searching through my system logs and found what appears to be hacking attempts through apache.

 

Unfortunately I am pretty green when it comes to this sort of thing. So, I’m sure I have what would seem to be very basic questions to some.

 

I do have system logs, ip addresses, and times so if it is warranted, the cops will be notified

 

Can somebody tell me what the hacker is doing here:

 

"GET /default.ida?X………(lots of X’s)………X %u9090%u6858%ucbd3%u7801%u9090%u6858%ucbd3%u7801%u9090%u6858%ucbd3%u7801%u9090%u9090%u8190%u00c3%u0003%u8b00%u531b%u53ff%u0078%u0000%u00=a HTTP/1.0" 404 300 "-" "-"

 

and similarly

 

"SEARCH /\x90\x02\xb1\...... (“x02\xb1\” repeats hundreds of times) .........\ x02\xb1\x90\...(repeats hundreds of times)...\x90\x90\x90\x90\x90\x90" 414 341 "-" "-"

 

These appear to be the two types of attempts

 

How do I know if my system has been compromised? (apart from logs obviously and changes to files)

 

What do the end messages mean ie u0000%u00=a HTTP/1.0" 404 300 "-" "-" or " 414 341 "-" "-" or " 400 300 "-" "-"

 

 

 

 

Regards,

Phill
