If you don’t have WordPress or SMF, or any other foreign addition to your site, though, it’s much more likely that this is malicious.

You might also want to check your visitors log in cPanel (or whatever) to see if there is a particular suspicious visitor asking for a nonexestent page over and over.

I would also mention this to your hosting service if you can’t find any reason for the profile.php file being there (include that md5 section in your message to them).

See what’s in ’assets/public/functions.php.’ It may give you a clue about what’s going on.

That md5 section basically says that if the browser receives a request with the appropriate string in the $_POST array, it should create a function with the code sent in the ’f’ variable of the $_POST array and then execute it. Kind of a scary prospect, although it could be legit. My 0.9.6 installs are not current but there’s no assets/public directory in them at all. Do you have SMF attached to your site? I think it uses a profile.php script.

I would rename the .htaccess file, for now, and create a new one with just the normal rewrite code I gave above and keep an eye on it to see if it changes back. That would be a sign that someone is messing with you.

Hopefully, someone who knows more about this than I do will chime in.

Notice the code on line 8 - that string is what appears in the source of all the pages that aren’t displayed! This must have something to do with the problem.

I just tried renaming it to profie-temp.php to see if it had any effect, but it seems the host is having problems right now, as the site is giving a database error whether the profile.php is remaned or not.

Does the source of the profile.php suggest anything to you? (I’m not a php programmer - I know just enough to get MODx and snippets working).

Is the profile.php thing something you put in?

For starters, you could try turning off FURLS in the manager and comment out the FURL code in .htaccces to see what that gets you.

It does sound like a FURL problem, BTW.]]>

I don’t think there’s anything sensitive in there. It’s a bit of a mess though...

There’s no index.htm file in the root directory. Where else might I look for a host added php.ini file?

Thanks again smiley]]>

There could be a php.ini file above or below the modx root directory which might apply. Sometimes php.ini will have directives on how various files should be served.

If there’s anything sensitive in the .htaccess file, you can rewrite that part before posting it.

Yes there is an index.html. This is the old, obsolete site which is flat HTML. We have kept it there for users who refuse to upgrade from MSIE6 and have some problems viewing the new MODx site (the client refused to pay me for the inordinate amount of time it would have taken to jerry-rig the site to work properly in IE6). I use the .htaccess to load the index.php by default, but still allow users access to the old site by manually entering the index.html on the url.

I can post the content of the .htaccess file here, if that’s not a security risk.

Thre doesn’t appear to be a php.ini file in the root directory.

Thanks for the help!

Take a close look at your .htaccess file. Maybe your host (or your client) has overwritten or deleted it.

Another possibility is a host-added php.ini file.

<div style="display:none">3054fa38dbdc58de23337c03e086c1e3</div>

I’ve checked everything under the hood, and it all seems fine. The templates all look correct, the documents in the editor all load fine, the database (while excruciatingly slow to view via phpmyadmin on the hosts erver) appear intact.

I am unaware of any changes the client has made that could cause such a problem, and I doubt they would have the knowledge to make any such change anyway. I’ve told them to stick to editing documents and to stay out of the rest of the manager. The site is hosted on a shared server.

The site in question is: http://vicphysics.org
An example problem page is: http://www.vicphysics.org/photocontest.html

Some details:

MODx version: 0.9.6
MySQL version: 5.0.51a
PHP version: 5.2.3
Phoinfo: http://vicphysics.org/phpinfo.php
Apache version: 2.2.4

Please let me know if there is any other information that would be helpful. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer!
