Well the way I look at it another script kiddy who got no brains.

maybe u shudn't allow html code incertain fields that show up on homepages...


That coming from a guy who website is just phpnuke with no protection added to it but what it came with.[lol]

Well my little rant is over and sorry if it made any one mad.

ModsOnline is your forums part phpbb because they look it. If they are maybe it be a good idea to look into cracker tracker because from what I know it stops like 99% of hackers from doing stuff to the forums.

It looks like phpbb, but it's not. It's all custom. The topics are now stripping all html. I still don't want to strip it from the forum posts as I think that would ruin things.

The most amazing thing about you guys calling this a hack is that it wasn't even a hack. He just put the EMBED tag in his project title and then posted that HTML code in a ton of forums. Flat-boring.

I don't mean to tell you how to run your website, but allowing user-written HTML *anywhere* is foolish foolish foolish. A little JavaScript trickery and someone can get your password or any other information you enter into this website.

Always strip HTML. (Preserve the user's intentions by replacing less-than signs with & l t ; without the spaces, greater-than signs with & g t ; without the spaces.) You already have BBCode which allows text formatting; add any features you want to that, but make sure that what the user puts onto your web pages is controlled.

Sweet... thanks foyleman! glad you noticed right away, lol, I couldn't think of any other modsonline.com email address for some reason [duh]

anyway thank goodness you guys fixed that crap... that really pisses me off--why would anybody want to harm a benevolent community site anyway? [ohwell]

Good luck cleaning things up [thumbs_up]

errr... wow. I never knew about this till this morning.

Well, it is unfortunate that this member had to come to something like this, as it's a great website.

.. i fixed it foru so u didn't lose ur site.. at least im nice enuf todo that..


As far as I know, a redirect poses little threat of a website being deleted, if any at all. But for you to say you are 'nice enuf' is silly as no hacker deserves recognition if they are purposley trying to make themselves known.

Whether you feel you did the site and it's members a good deed by making sure the admins do not have to boot up the backup from not long ago (I don't know the exact amount of time between each back-up after the recent crash of the site) is irrelevant.

I think he should be changed from general member to 'My ass got busted by foyleman"

Well enjoy your time banned from the site, slooooooooooow proxy [crazy]
