I checked my computer this morning to find it was generating IRC traffic. Curious as I don't RUN IRC!
I've discovered that the permissions needed to run the cache directory allowed a k1dd13 to install an IRC client and a php page to allow him to run arbitrary commands under the wwwrun context.
(While this may be a php or apache configuration, I'm thinking it was related to phpix as the files were all placed under it's cache directory.)
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
phpshell right? i had the same issue. To prevent this I had to turn on safe-Mode in PHP. Unfortunetly this causes even more problems with phpix3. Namely you can not view the images. You can get around this by changing a setting in the phpix ini file. Unfortunetly by doing this you loose the high quality thumbnails that PHPIX3 used to provide.
