Basically browsers allow you to place CSS styles within a page just using:-

<style> CSS here </style>

The problem with this is that the CSS is not actually within HTML tags eg < > so is hard to filter.

Anyway, some annoying idiot discovered that you can use this to changethe back ground image using CSS. This wouldn't be so bad, but theperson who discovered this linked to a background image that said 'Thisforum has been hacked!!'.

So it's not really a major security problem and it's quite simple tojust delete the post, the problem was it took me the best part of aday to work out how to prevent it without removing legitimate 'Style'tags for things like font colours etc.

So what have they done?
Injection with the style tag?

That's the only line I see added in new (functions_filters.asp).

If you prefer not to talk about it, I understand, sometimes it's better that way.]]> Sat, 18 Jun 2005 03:06:28 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/whats-new-in-7-91_topic15346_post85303.html#85303 <![CDATA[Whats new in 7.91? : Yes, it&#039;s enough...

Sorry to post this again but I downloaded all of the software when I read about the update and uploaded everything, the forum is working but says version 9.7, when I click the 'Check for Updates' it tells me to download 9.71 as I uploaded all the files not just the changed file does this mean that my update has not worked?

This site has nothing to do with the URL you have posted so I can't seehow or why you would get that line unless you have modified the files.]]> Fri, 10 Jun 2005 17:05:29 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/whats-new-in-7-91_topic15346_post84909.html#84909 <![CDATA[Whats new in 7.91? : I&#039;ve fixed the error.

I've fixed the error.
 
There was <body onmouseover="window.status='.:: [MsX©] Labs. HQ ~ www.MsXLabs.com ::.'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"> code in common.asp file.
 
I moved this code to header.asp and the problem is OK!
 
Thanks! Embarrassed

My version still shows 7.9, not 7.91.  Is that ok?
 
I have the same thing but.........
 
I downloaded the new software and uploaded all the files, the forum is now working, but I have 7.9 showing as the version and when I go into 'Check for Updates' it tells me to download 7.91 as I uploaded all the files not just the changed file does this mean that my update has not worked?

Sounds like you have a corrupted file somewhere, reupload all the original files from 7.91, just keep your original database.]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2005 09:43:47 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/whats-new-in-7-91_topic15346_post84851.html#84851
