Files keep appearingHi

Have you taken a look from the outside as it were, at the website that is hosted above the /Resources directory where they keep appearing?

Are they being uploaded through some insecure feature the webdevelopers have bolted onto the page, upload your CV / Docs kind of thing?

That would look like legit site traffic in your connection logs. 

Any  .pl / ,php / .asp scripts in or around that directory & do they log the filenames?  

It could be that the site itself is insecure presenting the phisher a way in despite running a fully patched server.

The original site could even be a smokescreen in which to hide the phishing pages...  

> - no connections were made on my server 

Remember if your webserver has been compromised through a known vuln or 0day the logs could be lying.

Regards
Colin

  I keep having a phishing website appear on my web server.  

  They keep showing up in a Resources folder of one of the sites that I host.  I have gone through the logs and I am not seeing any connections.  I deleted the files this morning and this evening they re-appeared - no connections were made on my server during that period of time. 

  Also, there are no cron jobs that I noticed that looked out of the ordinary. 

  I am running MySQL, PHP, Apache2 on a debian linux server. 

  Any thoughts?
