PHP.net hacked, but most things are fine again

Between 22nd and 24th October 2013 php.net served JavaScript malware (that was built to use security holes in the usually insecure Flash player) to users, but php downloads / source tarballs are not affected.

As stated by php.net, everything is fine again. I’ve put a link to the full attacker’s JS code at the end of the article, this might be interesting for JS guys. This will hopefully lead to a rethinking of how php.net handles its server mirroring.

Update: Parts of the site which use SSL are not accessable for a short time.

Update: All passwords for the site have been reset.

Update: The PHP git repo is now read-only.
