Credit Card Skimmer and Backdoor on WordPress E-commerce Site

A sophisticated malware attack targeting WordPress WooCommerce sites was discovered, involving multiple components: a credit card skimmer, a hidden backdoor file manager, and a reconnaissance script. The attack focused on financial gain and long-term control. The skimmer, injected into the checkout page, collected payment and billing information, sending it to a malicious server. A PHP backdoor allowed remote system command execution, while a reconnaissance script gathered server information. The attack demonstrates the evolving complexity of e-commerce platform threats, emphasizing the need for strict security measures, regular scans, proper access controls, and timely updates to prevent such exploits.

Is it me, or has the latest versions of Remmina had a regression where it does not respect the custom resolution set in RDP connections and just passes through the current display resolution of the client to the RDP host?

I'm seeing the same issue with both the Fedora and the Flathub packages and with both a Windows 10 VM and a Debian (trixie) VM.

The #RDP server in #Windows 10 Pro keeps changing its certificate. I have to pretty much blindly trust that any change in certificate is legit and not an MITM attack. It also won't let me set a certificate myself.

Apparently #Microsoft considers basic #infosec to be a premium enterprise feature.

#Windows, #MacOS, #VNC, generally all GUIs in #retrocomputing:
“Just draw into local video RAM.”

#X11, #RDP:
“Send all draw calls over a network socket! Sophisticated! Impressive! Network transparent!”

#Wayland, RDPv7.1:
“Just draw into local video RAM.”

I am a tiny bit concerned.

Using #MullvadVPN @mullvadnet on #GrapheneOS @GrapheneOS I need to disable GrapheneOS' default VPN protections to make split tunneling work.

I use that to prevent #Youtube from blocking me (poorly the good times are over it seems), and to have local network stuff (#RDP, #LocalSend, #KDEConnect, #SyncthingFork) work.

Are all these apps bypassing my VPN?? Or are they collecting data themselves and the system can access that?

The GB numbers indicate the latter?

Is there a #VNC (or #RDP, or whatever) server for #macOS where, instead of sharing the Mac's built-in screen, the VNC/RDP/whatever client gets its own independent session?

Like how the #Windows remote desktop server works.

That way, if more than one user is authorized to use the VNC/RDP/whatever server, they won't gain access to each other's sessions.

Is that a thing?

Hivemind contemplation.
Today I had possibly the weirdest thing I've ever seen involving computers.

Chromebook running MS Remote Desktop App as a client to XRDP on Rocky 9. Everything works well except.

Typing a less than or plus sign from the keyboard doesn't work:
'<' renders as '>' and
'+' does nothing.

Unless you use left-shift and hit a different key first, then press '<' or '+' without lifting off the left-shift -- in which case they render correctly.

Right-shifting always renders these characters incorrectly.

This only appears when connecting RDP to a Linux box. Everything works perfectly well via ssh, locally, and RDPed to Windows.

Any clues?
#linux #rdp #chromeos

Hat jemand die #RDP Remote Desktops unter #Plasma 6.1+ unter Wayland in Gebrauch? Was sind da die Einschränkungen? Wie schnell ist der Stream im Vergleich zu Nomachine? Gibt es geteilte Zwischenablage? Audio? Kann der Client konfiguriert werden, eingehende Anmeldungen immer zu akzeptieren?

Sag mal hat jemand von euch ein funktionierenden RDP-Desktop wo alles funktioniert?
Also alle Anwendungen starten, so wie sie sollen (vor allem auch Programme mit Passworteingaben (pkexec oder seahorse bspw).
Würde mich über Tipps freuen!
Bevorzugter Desktop Cinnamon oder Xfce, aber kein Muss.
Aktuell bin ich mit xrdp im Rennen.

So y'all would be a good group of people to ask:

Is there anything comparable to #RDP for #Linux?

I can #VNC All day but VNC is kind of shit.

The big thing I'd really love to have is autoscaling displays, so I could change the resolution of resolution of the thing I want to connect to to match the screen that I'm connecting from, and to a lesser extent to be able to do things like push audio across that connection. If I could extend a remote desktop across multiple displays, well then, that's killer.

#thought of the day: Why don't remote access applications (e.g. #Teamviewer, #VNC, #RDP, #NoMachine, #AnyDesk, #RustDesk, etc.) make a tabbed interface for supporting multiple monitors? Almost like browser tabs, tab 1 is monitor 1, tab 2 is monitor 2, tab ... is monitor ...

This seems like a much easier way to manage multiple screens than the loops I currently jump through.

Traditional RDP actually seems to handle this the best, it makes everything appear as if it is on one screen.
