Spam sent from index.php - will security patch fix?

I got this (pasted below) message from my clients host - they locked me out of the account - when I explained that I was not sending mails from this account and a security patch was avail - they reopened the account.

Does anyone know if installing the security patch will stop this from happening?

I removed return true; after $data[$key] = $this->safety($val); in the ini.inc.php file

- a large amount of spam has been sent by the following script:

~/index.php total: 16410 permissions: 644

mails sent in week 09 : 2

mails sent in week 10 : 7

mails sent in week 12 : 17

mails sent in week 13 : 13951

mails sent in current week: 2433

My recommendation would be that you submit a support ticket, so this can be addressed directly by the CubeCart developers. If a security breach exists, they'll want to fix it in an instant, and issue an update for everyone else.

Out of interest, what version of CubeCart are you using?

This happened to one of my clients stores too, his some parts from the email the hosting company sent him:

a large amount of spam has been sent by the following script:

~/store/index.php total: 6260 permissions: 644

mails sent in week 12 : 11

mails sent in week 13 : 6249

Upload a more secure version of the following modules of your software.

These files are vulnerable and were used as a gateway by the attackers:

toshibatecstore.co.uk /index.php $cpage,catId,redir,_g,_a,contact

toshibatecstore.co.uk /contact-us/index.php $contact

Is there a fix for this?
