I have several sites that have been hacked recently - I can get restore copies. Can anyone tell me - Do I need to restore the MySQL database files, or does the hack only affect files and folders?]]> dan_arclight Jul 30, 2018, 11:14 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560214 <![CDATA[Re: Recovering from site hack]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560221 chrisandy Jul 30, 2018, 01:24 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560221 <![CDATA[Re: Recovering from site hack]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560220 Quote from: chrisandy at Jul 30, 2018, 11:34 AM
So far I've not heard of anybody having a compromised DB but if you have a recent back up (before July 17th), I would use it. Don't forget to upgrade all extras and especially the Gallery snippet (if installed) to the latest version.

Many thanks. Ive just recovered one site without a DB backup - thanks for reminding me about the Gallery snippet! I did have to add the 'name' field to the mox_context in the mySql table though to get the auto-updater to work...]]> dan_arclight Jul 30, 2018, 01:16 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560220 <![CDATA[Re: Recovering from site hack (Best Answer)]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560215 chrisandy Jul 30, 2018, 11:34 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/104163/recovering-from-site-hack#dis-post-560215
