It's a GIF image which says "No Hotlinking" (in red)

I've added a comment to the script explaining the purpose of the base64 string 
so that people know it's intentional

Great. Thanks

Shouldn't use base64 for this. WordPress theme directory will not accept any 
themes with ANY base64. I don't see any reason a simple "no hotlinking" image 
needs to be encoded anyway.

do we know BinaryMoon isn't the malware creator?

joemerci: All binary data has to be encoded in a source file.

talldark: This isn't malware.

The gripe about WordPress theme dir not accepting base64 encoded data seems 
legitimate. timthumb should be usable by all themes. So perhaps we should  yank 
this feature. Thoughts Ben? Can someone else verify this claim re WP not 
accepting base64 data in themes?

Yeah - the WordPress theme directory doesn't allow anything base64 encoded

I would go for an optional file called xxxx.png in the timthumb directory. It 
would be used if available and removed if not? What do you think?

Hello, All.

This code below is the same thing?

}
        if(BLOCK_EXTERNAL_LEECHERS && array_key_exists('HTTP_REFERER', $_SERVER) && (! preg_match('/^https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?' . $this->myHost . '(?:$|\/)/i', $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']))){
            $imgData = base64_decode("R0lGODlhUAAMAIAAAP8AAP///yH5BAAHAP8ALAAAAABQAAwAAAJpjI+py+0Po5y0OgAMjjv01YUZ\nOGplhWXfNa6JCLnWkXplrcBmW+spbwvaVr/cDyg7IoFC2KbYVC2NQ5MQ4ZNao9Ynzjl9ScNYpneb\nDULB3RP6JuPuaGfuuV4fumf8PuvqFyhYtjdoeFgAADs=");
            header('Content-Type: image/gif');
            header('Content-Length: ' . sizeof($imgData));
            header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0');
            header("Pragma: no-cache");
            header('Expires: ' . gmdate ('D, d M Y H:i:s', time()));
            echo $imgData;
            return false;
            exit(0);
        }

Thanks for answer.

I know this thread is slightly dated, but for the record, I succesfully 
uploaded "OptimizerPress" theme for WordPress which included the quoted base64 
code by Originating Poster "smashing..." (see top post).  And WP 3.4.1 accepted 
it, so apparently the current version of WP DOES allow base64 encoding.  Here's 
a snippet of text from the "timthumb.php" file included with OptimizerPress:  
"if(BLOCK_EXTERNAL_LEECHERS && array_key_exists('HTTP_REFERER', $_SERVER) && (! 
preg_match('/^https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?' . $this->myHost . '(?:$|\/)/i', 
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']))){
            // base64 encoded red image that says 'no hotlinkers'
            // nothing to worry about! :)
            $imgData = base64_decode("R0lGODlhUAAMAIAAAP8AAP///yH5BAAHAP8ALAAAAABQAAwAAAJpjI+py+0Po5y0OgAMjjv01YUZ\nOGplhWXfNa6JCLnWkXplrcBmW+spbwvaVr/cDyg7IoFC2KbYVC2NQ5MQ4ZNao9Ynzjl9ScNYpneb\nDULB3RP6JuPuaGfuuV4fumf8PuvqFyhYtjdoeFgAADs=");
            header('Content-Type: image/gif');
            header('Content-Length: ' . sizeof($imgData));"
