Malicious record in body

Post by Beata » Wed Feb 23, 2022 11:39 am

My Joomla 3.10.6
I don’t know how that record came about, but I only noticed it today. He is on every page. It is in page sources, I see it:

Code: Select all

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/templates/classyhome/images/pr.swf" width="12" height="12"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="menu" value="false"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><param name="flashvars" value="flsh"><a href="http://www.casino10top.com/jackpotcity-casino-review/" title="jackpotcity casino">all jackpotcity casino user reviews and ratings</a><param name="menu" value="false"></object>		
		       
I downloaded the template index.php, it's not there. How to find it and clear ?
Look an attachment

Could you test it with another browser? And from another computer?
Just to test if it's device related, maybe caused by a browser plugin or a computer virus.

If the problem persists on another computer, then your website might use some non-core extension that adds a backlink.

Or your website might be hacked. If so, check out this documentation: https://docs.joomla.org/Security_Checkl ... or_defaced

I've visited your website. It's not PC/browser related because I see it as well.
It might be added by a 3rd party extension or your website might be hacked.

I am no professional webmaster.
Should I use Forum Post assistant?

I'm sorry, but it's impossible to know how to remove the malicious code from your website without looking under the hood.

What I do to solve issues with hacked websites: I create a backup (using Akeeba Backup) of the hacked site and install it in a local environment. I use an IDE (I use PHPStorm) to inspect the code and find such hacks.

Another approach is to compare the code of a clean website with a hacked website with a diff tool like https://meldmerge.org/ That's an approach to find any hacks in the Joomla core files.

I hope that you can use one of these approaches to find the issue. Otherwise I'd recommend to find a professional service provider:

As you have securitycheck extension installed why dont you use the tools they provide? If you get stuck their support is very good

Thank you for answer. The worse that I don't know when did this record appear, I have backup done in January of 2021, could restore.
How could securitycheck extension help me now?
My AdminExile is already saved a lot of ID which persons tried to do attack, they don't come back again.
My Security check extension has spam protection on 60 % and already 48931 logs pending. What to do else?
maybe I was too little interested ...
I see I need to leave until things get worse, then reinstall

Understand, this is the easiest way, but
labor intensive

Doesn't take long. And not labour intensive for you if you take one of the two professional options.

@Beata
You have 3 options for cleaning your site. There is no 'click one button to clean the site' option.

Understood. These are paid services.
I had a different idea about how to use this link
https://community.joomla.org/service-pr ... directory/
previously suggested to me. Never saw it.
In total, I have never used paid services in my 20 years of my work activities. I'll handle it myself.
Thanks to all.

Yep that's a 4th option and also one you need to pay for.
So you have one option to do it yourself and three options you need to pay for. If anyone was going to offer to do it for free they most likely would of offered by now.

So you can either do it yourself or choose one of the three commercial options. But it is unlikely that continually posting on here will will get the job done.
