Our ExpressionEngine installation was hacked.
The hoster says that it was a Brutforce attack. They came over the admin.php page.
Is this possible? And how can we protect ourselves in the future?
Is there a way to examine the mysql database about the virus, so we do not need to create the complete page again?
Another Question. The Host put the site into a Sandbox because we want to reproduce the structure and templates.
Now, there is a problem. We can’t login. This error message occurs: “An Error Was Encountered Unable to load the requested file: homepage.php”
Do you have any advice. I set these paths in our config.php file using configuration variables: $config[‘site_url’] = “http://example.com/”; $config[‘tmpl_file_basepath’] = “/home/user/example.com/templates/”; $config[‘theme_folder_url’] = “http://example.com/themes/”; $config[‘theme_folder_path’] = “/home/user/example.com/themes/”;
