Postat: 15 jun 2010, 18:22
Mycket olycklig händelse där IRC applikationen Unreal IRCd visat sig innehålla kod som innehåller en trojan i form av en bakdörr

Utnyttjas direkt av Windooze-pressen..... ED Bott är en mycket känd amerikansk skribent.This is very embarrassing...We found out that the Unreal3.2.8.1.tar.gz file on our mirrors has been replaced quite a while ago with a version with a backdoor (trojan) in it. This backdoor allows a person to execute ANY command with the privileges of he user running the ircd. The backdoor can be executed regardless of any user restrictions (so even if you have passworded server or hub that doesn't allow any users in). [...] It appears the replacement of the .tar.gz occurred in November 2009 (at least on some mirrors). It seems nobody noticed it until now.
