Not sure what these files are

I really hope someone can give me some information about this. I run a ecommerce site and recently found a strange directory in my images folder. It's called File and it contained 2 files. I've attached them here in a zip file.

And yes, I've already gone the the ecomm software people with this and all they are willing to do is help with the cart itself. I need to know more though, like if this is something malicious and what it was exactly designed to do.

Please if someone can, give me infomation about this. If it is a hack of some sort I need to know so I can further batten down my hatches.

Thanks

 

I've gone ahead and removed the files to prevent public access since I've gotten confirmation that this is a hack and I don't want to further promote it's use.

If you are someone in charge here and would like a copy of them for review please let me know and I'll send them to you. I really would like to know more about this to keep it from happening again.

Thanks

 

Wow you edited. I like this reply much better, it's nicer.

I did state in my second post to contact me for copies if you were someone serious in helping. Doesn't matter anymore anyway, between someone at another forum and my host we figured it out and now all is well.

But the rundown is that I had an images folder inadvertently set at 777 and someone got in and added that "File" directory. One file was cpanel.pl and I don't remember the other one now (I've deleted them). But fortunately my host as some security measures in place and the exploit was unable to run so no harm was done. I believe it was some sort of mailer exploit or something. Sorry I'm so fuzzy on the details now.

 

Absolutely! My personal PC's are armed to the teeth with protection and fully patched and updated, so I wasn't too worried about that. Especially since it wasn't on MY pc. I just didn't like the fact that they got in my stuff on my shared hosting account. I'd be pissed if someone else's lax security screwed up my site, and I didn't want to be the axxhole that messed things up for everyone else. You know how it goes.
