Hi

This is the URL from the exceptions admin/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/connector.php?Command=GetFoldersAndFiles&Type=Image&CurrentFolder=/

What do you think? Could be an attack?
Meanwhile I added the IP to blacklist.
Could it have done any harm from the moment I got the security emails and until blacklisting it? Or did the firewall blocked it anyway?

Thanks!

Forgot to mention reason was DFIShield

You have some old program versions there! Joomla!, PHP and Admin Tools are all end of live and unsupported. That's dangerous.

Admin Tools blocked the attack, it is not necessary to block the IP as well. Hackers don't use their own IP addresses, so permanently blocking an IP is of questionable use. Eventually you will end up blocking legitimate users. The auto-ban feature will ban the IP for a certain period of time, then release it. This might be a better choice. It will block the hacker from using that IP to attack you long enough for him to get bored and move on, but will not permanently block the IP address.

Hi

Thanks for your reply. I know the website is outdated. I need it to last just a bit until the new one will be ready. That's why I bought the Tools in order to protect him for the rest of his not so long life.

You are welcome!
