I don't understand what the problem is. It could be because I can't read whatever language that is in the picture.

That is like an htaccess protection popup. Someone has protection on the directory where the site or image is located.

So are you saying that it's a security hole because that popup might trick people into entering their vbulletin password?

Sorry, I still don't get it. It just seems like you've linked to a file that's password-protected by your web server. If there's something else going on, I don't understand.

It could be that I just don't understand enough about security holes to know what you're saying, but maybe someone else will.

I think all they are saying is someone linked to a php file using an IMG tag.

Ive removed the links from this thread as the pop-up was annoying.

Ive removed the links from this thread as the pop-up was annoying.And since there was no way to read the source code, no real way to tell what all was in the file.

OK, but how is that a security hole (and what does it have to do with cookies)? Maybe if they are saying that someone was able to upload a php file as an image, then run it by putting it in an IMG tag? (No, that doesn't make sense, you could run it without the img tag).
