Orphan date November 2010 unreferenced date November 2010 A backdoor shell is a malicious piece of PHP code that can be uploaded to a site to gain access to files stored on that site. Once it is uploaded, the hacker can use it to edit, delete, or download any files on the site, or upload their own. How to upload Hackers usually take advantage of an upload panel designed for uploading images onto sites. This is usually found once the hacker has logged in as the admin of the site. Shells can also be uploaded via exploits or remote file inclusion . Uses Shells have many uses. They can be used to edit the webserver directory index page of site, and then Hacker computer security hackers can leave their mark or deface for visitors to the site to see when they go to the homepage. Hackers may also use it to Brute force attack bruteforce FTP or cpanel , allowing them more access to the website. Shells can also be used to gain root access to the site. Some hackers may choose to host malware or spyware on the sites they have uploaded their shell to using various exploits. Prevention To prevent a site from having a shell uploaded onto it, a webmaster must always keep up with the latest security updates and make sure to have a secure admin panel. They must also make sure that if they do have an admin panel they make sure it only permits the user to upload .jpeg, .png, and other image file types only.

Creative Computing was one of the earliest magazines covering the microcomputer revolution . Published from 1974 until December 1985, Creative Computing covered the whole spectrum of hobbyist home personal computing in a more accessible format than the rather technically oriented BYTE magazine BYTE . The magazine was founded by David H. Ahl , who sold it to Ziff Davis in the early 1980s, but remained as Editor in Chief. Featured writers included Robert Swirsky , David Lubar , and John J. Anderson . The magazine regularly included BASIC source code for utility programs and games, which users could manually enter into their home computers. At the end of its run, Creative Computing was attempting to refocus on business computing as was the trend in most computer magazines of the time , but was not successful at this and ultimately ceased publication. Ted Nelson , known for the invention of hypertext , was briefly the editor. The April, 1980 issue of Creative Computing contained clever parodies of all of the major computer magazines of the time.
