Log-In Module Security - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
the log-in form module @ betterbradynow.org appears have been compromised or corrupted. attempting log in gives 404 error page. "forgot password?" , "forgot username?" links. "create new account" link missing.
i gone month , noticed not log in front end today. can log administrative end without problem.
in reviewing new registered users, noticed 1 new user shown both "registered" , "administrator". there not supposed front-end administrators.
how new user able give himself administrative privilege unless there security problem? should protect website , make sure doesn't happen again?
this small, low traffic, non-commercial website intended limited number of local viewers. 1 possible solution eliminate automated registration , log-in altogether. hate because nice feature. if complicated security risk, prefer security bells , whistles.
please advise.
cordially,
