one of our sites got hacked with a base64 hash that is about 1000 characters long. How can i search and replace this string with a a space in multiple files and get rid of it?
here is the string

eval(base64_decode(by// XXX evil eval:to comment out the offending code to start with. Even more smart would be to make a regexp match that doeseval(base64_decode(.*$to match until the end of the line (which is what$does), which can get you rid of any occurence without resorting to an exact match. If the amount of occurences is low you might get around with justgrep -r evalto find in which files is it located and manually change them until that command no longer returns any results. In any case, the duplicate gives you a good start... – Tamara Wijsman Oct 09 '12 at 23:58find -name '*.php' -exec sed -r -i 's/eval\(base64_decode\(".*?"\)\);//g' {} +– Indrek Oct 10 '12 at 00:13
