Got hacked, sort of

mwpclark a year ago

I am using linux traccar server 5.5 setup for mysql. Traccar has been working well for us for many years, including a custom app by Anton & company that incorporates traccar features. Recently I noticed some bogus entries in tc_devices, and then tc_users. The admin/admin password had not been changed after setup on new server, my fault. I fixed that.

I can delete bogus users from the admin login, now with changed password.

The first batch of bogus users/devices was about 3 months ago, the second batch a few weeks.

My question is, if I use mysql to delete all the bogus entries from tc_devices, will this create a problem?

Thanks
Mike

I have just disabled the bogus users

Anton Tananaev a year ago

Hacked or you never disabled public registration?

mwpclark a year ago

Never changed the admin/admin password. Did that this morning. Is there another way to disable public registration?

Anton Tananaev a year ago

Yes, in the server settings.

mwpclark a year ago

So uncheck the Registration Permission?

Anton Tananaev a year ago

Yes.

mwpclark a year ago

Done, thanks
