Known Security Issues?

Post by xdaniel » 2014-02-17 16:04

Hi Fred,

I have a site with a database running on MX Kollection 3.7.1 and ADODB. Are there any known security wholes in it? The site was hacked and completely deleted running system commands?

Best wishes

Daniel

Send you a PM and email a couple of days ago.
Did you manage to sort something out?

Hello Everybody,

From long standing experience, I can tell you that the main security hole comes from an unpatched DW8 installation!

I can't stress enough, you MUST install the 8.02 update! If you do not, then every database connected page that you make will be EXTREMELY vulnerable to SQL injection attacks.

Once 8.02 is installed, your connections will be VERY secure, at least in regards to protection from web-based attacks.

Please let me know if I can offer any further insights.
