[Aide] added file in the summary, not in the detailed information section

[Vijay]

Michael,
    This is not related to your AIDE question, but I too experienced a
similar situation not too long ago.  A client's box was compromised
using an outdated php CMS system running custom php add-on.  We did
not have the option to wait for a fix and needed to bring the server
back online quickly.

I suspected the compromise took place via some file which was either
uploaded to the tmp directory or upload directory and then executed
via some flaw in php code (possibly sql injection).  In addition to
hardening the new LAMP stack, I mapped the tmp and upload directories
to a filesystem mapped with nodev,nosuid,noexec options.

We are still waiting for a complete fix for the php code, but none in
sight :-) In the mean time, AIDE continues to provide some peace of
mind :-)

Good luck,
Vijay
