• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Exploring possible hack. Can't access pre 01-01-13 log files?

New Pleskian
I think our server has been hacked.

Plesk 10 control panel admin password had changed the account profile details: Name address, user name etc has been changed. I'm a newbie admin and new here, but I'm trying to review the log files to see if I can see any issues and who accessed when.

The problem is when I do settings | action log | dates .... and I try and change the year to 2012 to see what happend in December, for trends, the year field won't go back to 2012.

1. How can I look back into 2012?
2. What do I need to look for to see if we have had anything neanderthal done to the server!

I have reset our Virtuoso root password and our Plesk panel password (differnet ones)

The Jan log says ....

212.183.128.124 www.www.onmydoorstep.co.uk:8880 - [20/Jan/2013:13:27:32 +0000] "GET /javascript/promo-flags.js.php HTTP/1.1" 200 83 "http://www.www.onmydoorstep.co.uk/" "Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 6_0_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/10A523"

but this doesn't look malicious - I think?
 
If there is no records for 2012 year in the log - it's not available in the list. You can check it in the database:
# mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow ` psa -e 'select MIN(date) from log_actions;'
