A hacker infiltrated our (Linux) system and left a script behind. In the script there is a name and a numeric sequence. What does this numeric sequence mean? #!/bin/bash # # cleaner - by (The hacker's alias) [38.24.8888] # # Usage: ./cleaner 'your login name or any string' I should clarify that I didn't actually find this script on my system, I found it on a website he was using to host his tools. The hacker did install some kind of IRC bomb (mirkforce) to attack a remote site, so I thought it might somehow be related to IRC.
