Scanning Files...
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2008 9:14 am
Here's something I've been curious about... how does one go about scanning files.... like for example one of my clients sites got hacked... had an iframe that was malicious at the bottom of most pages. the static pages were easy to find. however the 3rd party software had thousands of files that were included and whatnot, which I had to look through. It would be very convenient if I could just have a simple script run that checks EVERY script it can find in a directory for something like <iframe* or javascript:* and Shows me Every example of such code. Then I could confirm which ones were good, and any that were bad, I would know which file they are in.
is it possible to somewhat scan other files like this?
and if so, could a web based version be made to scan compressed files allowing webmasters to upload their files which may be infected and run a scan?
just curious. I can honestly do it the old fashioned way should it happen again.
