I will give it a try later today.. Sure it was done through the form and not through FTP?
Nearly positive. I was told by the hacker it was done through the login form. First he modified the login page, then probably grabbed my SQL login through a similar manner.
Or... that's just a red herring. I highly doubt a SQL exploit can modify web pages.
I never said it was an SQLi. I just know it used the login form that uses an SQL database, and he just managed to grab my SQL info for other purposes after breaking my form.
do you have brute force protection as well? because someone can just run bruteforce until it pops a correct user and pass.
That isn't the issue here.
derp sorry. to me it sounds like sql injection just put this at the header of every page and that will reject those requests and log their ip and the string they tried to use. Also are you running this website from home using apache?
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

$sql_inject_2 = array("", "","","""); #To wont replace
$GET_KEY = array_keys($_GET); #array keys from $_GET
$POST_KEY = array_keys($_POST); #array keys from $_POST
$COOKIE_KEY = array_keys($_COOKIE); #array keys from $_COOKIE
/*begin clear $_GET */
for($i=0;$i<count($GET_KEY);$i++)
{
$real_get[$i] = $_GET[$GET_KEY[$i]];
$_GET[$GET_KEY[$i]] = str_replace($sql_inject_1, $sql_inject_2, HtmlSpecialChars($_GET[$GET_KEY[$i]]));

The server is a professional setup that my friend owns (he hosts many sites). I'd normally have logs of what strings were used but not in this case. I'll add this for the future, thanks.
Still searching for the actual exploit. The hacker claimed it was relatively simple to execute but I can't imagine how he manage to modify the page permanently unless he had a way to escape and execute his own PHP.
