TOPIC: Code in template over-rides causing security flags

Code in template over-rides causing security flags 8 years 1 month ago #13827

My hosting provider has identified the CLEANMART override files product/default.php and product/flexv2.php as well as category/default.php and category/flexv2.php as potentially containing malicious code.

It keeps shutting them down! I have looked at the code and it has not been change or added to.

I was wondering if others have been having this issue, or if there is a known section of coding that could be causing the problems and could be removed.

I have asked the hosting company to make an exception for these files - waiting to hear back.

Thanks

FYI, I heard back from the hosting company (dreamhost):

Thanks for writing in. Reviewing the files in question, they do appear to
be benign and are being flagged as false positives. I've submitted a bug
report to the engineers in charge of the scanner asking that they review
the files and whitelist them. Unfortunately, I can not provide an
accurate ETA on this at this time


It is interesting to know what might cause the red flag. I had it on another host a couple of years ago too, same files...

Hi,

We have obfuscated some of the lines in some files (not encrypted, just obfuscated). They are there to validate the license of the template. This is absolutely nothing to do with any kind of malicious activity. DremHost might think those files might contain potential malicious code because they can't see what is behind.

We had to do this validation to protect our templates from these things:
- some people purchase template with single domain license, but attempt to use it in multi domains
- some stupid people buy the templates from us and then share them on torrents. I call them Robin Hood ;)

I am seeing you got the "MultiDomain" license and i am pretty sure that you won't ever share our templates in torrents (because looks like you are one of our valued our customers since 2013 and purchased many products)

So, if you provide me your FTP credentials, i can replace those obfuscated lines with the original lines, so DreamHost won't think those files are involved in malicious activity.

Please fill out this support-request-form below and email it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and i will take a look at your case ASAP.
