Summary
To be honest, since knowing that most of linux malware are blocking my IP & and my country's access, I changed my strategy to invite and trap them with the honeypot method for a dummy server to let them come and attack. (I think) I was preparing it good.. but after some time without anything happened I was thinking this strategy wasn't working well AAND...! Today by swatch script poke me with email for having a visitor. Checking the site to know it was actually visited two times but it looks like I did not get alert for the first one for I forgot to activate swatch into cron :-(
Code Injection in web contents and .htaccess
Shortly, this visitor is not friendly, he changed the root's index pages and fake javascript files into the ones with the obfuscated injected codes as per below:
With we can decode it easily into this:
It is the code of redirection using the special condition of cookies. This cookie will determine conditions to trigger a prepared action in the redirection destination php page (which at this moment only God knows what).
Moving along.. Seeing the decoded code result reminding me of the recent Darkleech poking script in their injected sites. So with the grateful feeling to this visitor I was seeking further I found the .htaccess with the below code:
At this time I feel sad to face the fact that this is only a common hacking method (honestly, I expected cooler stuffs like the latest Darkleech or RedKits or maybe cDorked..sigh!) of using mod_rewrite.c for the site's redirection. The mod_rewrite is an Apache module that allows the seamless (to the client) redirection of files, reference -->>[APACHE.ORG]. Where the mod_rewrite.c's RewriteEngine which is turned off in the most Apache web server's default setting, was switched ON and adding RewriteCond command to make condition to redirect the separated piped delimitered keywords HTTP request to the specific file/site/url mentioned above.
This "incident" is actually using a common usage of mod_rewrite.c by most webapp programmer to redirect all get request to index.php if the requested file of dir does not exists, with the format below:
＜IfModule mod_rewrite.c＞Hacker moronz are mostly using mod_rewrite.c with the below format for evil redirection:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
＜/IfModule＞
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (google|yahoo|bing|keyword-eetc1|keyword-eetc2) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} (google|yahoo|bing|keyword-etc1|keyword-eetc2)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} (html|htm|php|cgi|)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !FILENAME-TO-HANDLE-REQUEST.(php|cgi)
RewriteCond FILENAME-TO-HANDLE-REQUEST.(php|cgi) -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ /FILENAME-TO-HANDLE-REQUEST.(php|cgi) [L]

FTP logs of the attack - An Automation Trace
All of the access by this moronz visitor is through the FTP event log as per below, which is the clue in the systematic hacking a web server traces, which is suggested the tools/script usage/involvement:

The redirection URL is an interesting story, upon a direct access you'll get the "ok" data as per below:

It doesn't show nothing else but the "ok" at this point, but actually no one would like to hack for just redirecting your site into an "ok" wouldn't we? Thank's to Amanda Pessi for the idea about cookie used-->>See comment part

How many more cnt.php threat are in the internet now?
Today our team detected the below redirection of cnt.php:
[...]The overall redirection of cnt.php logged is a bit big, so please see it in this pastebin here-->>[Pastebin] (Big thank's to @Set_Abominae for the sorts). The name itself "cnt.php" is faking the good counter filename commonly used in PHP programming, suspected set to avoid the tracing purpose. So dorking the sites with "cnt.php" in Google will br resulted into a huge False Positive.

Epilogue
So if you read this post and you can enlighten us with the cookies and cnt.php matter (we know pretty well about mod_rewrite.c redirection matter, thank you) please poke me in twitter or write the comment. This case is not new and happened a lot in our beloved internet, Sucuri Labs has a good database on these injection & redirection, the link is here-->>[Google Dork]. In addition, if you happens to be infected/injected, Alex (Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu) of eVuln.com is writing a good tutorial on "Malicious Redirects - Common Fixing Guide v1" here-->>[eVuln.com]
Furthermore, I really hope to be visited by the other "visitor" next time, so stay tuned! :-)
