I have in the past installed this pastebin project on my server, no problems there but recently i get a lot of traffic from russian ip's for specific files, my server is not russian based and i get the impression they figured out some sort of exploit and are actively looking for this.

The URL that is request by them is: "GET /Stikked/htdocs/themes/i386/css/codemirror.css"

Im giving you a heads up of a possibly compromised situation.

Good luck!

and still no response from the dev after all this time?

Well, it's not like "russian IPs are downloading a CSS file from my pastebin" is any useful information, unfortunately...

TheBarret commented 5 years ago

I admit that you cannot do much about it at this given time, but if tons of russian ip's request a single file for no apparent reason, its fishy.

claudehohl commented 5 years ago

Don't worry, as long as they just request it and not trying to modify or delete it, everything is fine.

It may help if you showed the logs.Years ago, I was running an open source site on a server of mine, also based on PHP. I got an email indicating a problem which should not of occurred. Upon checking , I see the logs showing what looked like a script hitting the same page over and over until the site was compromised in a way they were able to get what they wanted.
