Advance Image Verification Hack - Prevent Automated Registrations

[Slynderdale]

Its finally complete, the Advance Image Verification hack, I know some one released it already here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48443

But it doesn't work at all, this will stop automated registrations as much as not having it installed.

In that hack, it had the value of the image in the public HTML that can easily be leeched and the non-gd support of that hack is just plain text.

With this hack, all the data is stored in sessions on the mysql server.

This hack supports both GD and Non-GD for those who don't want to use GDP or don't have it. Both are real secure and leechers and bots cant tell the actual value of the image.

Features:
-Support for GDP 2.0 and greater versions.
(Image True Color)
-Support for True Type
(For using type type fonts and print text on the image)
-You can give the size of the font for True Type font.
-You can enable and disable Image Verification
-You can give the process in which it generates the text values
(There are two: Random Characters or randomly select a word from the Word List you can create)
-You can set he max digits used to create the random characters
-You can allow caching of GD images to cut down on the server load
-You can set the session time in seconds, if the user idles past that, the old session gets removed and a new one added
-You can specify the main image extension for the images, so if you use peg images it would be jog
-You can give the output type for the final GD image , it can be peg, ping and gift (if you have it supported)
-You can give the quality of peg images that GD outputs
-You can select the output type for the final image.
(There are three, two are for GD and one is non-gd, the non gd one uses multiple images and then output multiple images for each char, the other two uses multiple images and combine them as one image and the other uses one main background image and writes the text in the center)
-You can specify the color of the text for GD images
-You have an option to distort the final GD image
-You can control what characters are displayed in the random character images.

Screen Shots:

Heres a screen shot of when you register this is using the background image with text in center option and the distort image option.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?s=&postid=352007

Heres a screen shot of the Non-GD support output, it uses multiple images, but it still uses session hashes so the user or bots cant tell what the value of the image is.

If you like this hack and use it on your forum, all I ask in return is for you to click Install (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misapply?s=&action=install&thread id=48709), That's all, thank you.

[Velocd]

Great job, when I have the time I'll defiantly consider using this on my forum.

* Velocd clicks install ;)

[Slynderdale]

Heres a screenshot of the Non-GD support, this is using multiple images.

Note: The images in the zip are default ones, feel free to change them as you wish, also if some one is kind enough, make a image pack and post it as an attachment for others to use, thanks.

You can barly tell that this is using multiple images, also how I have the html, if you go to highlight the images, it hightlights them all at once like its just one image, instead of each seperatly.

I hope you like it.

[ULTIMATESSJ]

heh great, i'll probibly install this soon

/me clicks submit reply.....then once the page is back clicks install

[Slynderdale]

Also tell me what you think of the installer, I made it from scratch.

[squawell]

i have a setup problem...

when i use the install file it only show file and template which i

should edit .....not run the query.......so can u made the txt file

i can run it myself......thankz....

u can see the pic..

[Ferny72]

Also for some reason when i press agree and try to register it says invalid image code and what not yet it doesn't even go to the register page. Also there is no cache folder...

[Yo.]

I'm having the same problem as Ferny72, except I created the cache folder in the right place manually and CHMODed it. It still displays the invalid image code message after clicking Agree.

Hmm, does the image get an error and not get displayed ot when you click register you get the error?

If its a error with register it could be that you entered the wrong vakue, the code is cap sensitive so Test isnt the same as test, if you have php try going to the verify table in the database and find your hash and copy and paste the value from it and see if that works, If not, ill see whats wrong.

Hmm, ill make a install.txt later but for now, try changeing the url to nstall)verifyimage.php?action=install

[Slynderdale]

Ok, if your getting errors with this try downloading the zip again and follow the instructions in the Image verification.txt file, youll also will need to redo your settings afterwards though.

If you still get problems, post.

This works good on my board offline, the porblem here, is that I might of not made the installer clear enough to where to add the code.

Also remember that the image code text is case sensitive so Test isnt the same as test, to find out if its a case problem, if you have php my admin, go to the database where your forum is on and then fo to the table verifyregister and find your hash and then copy and paste the value into the register input box and see if that works.

[Yo.]

Slynderdale, when I installed it the first time the text to replace in register.php was present three times, and as I suspected this is where I messed up. I downloaded the updated text file, did the edits for register.php again and now it works flawlessly. Thanks!

Alright, great to hear, thats what i thought was wrong with it.

[Slynderdale]

Hmm, oh yea, if any one installs this hack and is willing to post a link to there forum for a demo, ill be most grateful.

[Slynderdale]

I updated the zip file, i fixed the install_verifyimage.php and now it has more detailed install instructions like in the install.txt file so you wont place the code in the wrong place, also i fixed a slight bug in the text, the creator and the version was blank if you installed using the text.

[Velocd]

I've installed this, and you can see a working demo of the non-GD verification here (http://www.animesystem.com/forums/register.php).

The only problem I found is if you fill the GD-verification out correctly, but have forgot to fill in one of the other required fields (such as password), then when you refresh and go back, the image-verification is sorta screwed up (as in the images wont show). This may only be for the non-GD version though, since I don't have GD installed, but am planning to.

Good job once again Slynderdale ;)

If the images dont appear the the session time limit expired most likly, you can add a small note in the template telling the user if the images dont appear, try refreshing.

And thanks.

[Slynderdale]

Oh yea, Velcod, you might want to place the varible in the register templates for the other styles as well, not just for revision 3.

[Slynderdale]

Also I have a request for those who are decent at graphics, If you have some free time could you make new images for the hack and post them here as a graphic pack? The demo images in the zip arent that good, I quickly made them, the only requirements are that they are readable by the human eye but arent readable by bots. So dont use common fonts and so on, also make sure the fonts you use have unique characters, for example, dont use a font where more then one character looks alie, like the number one, capital I and lowercase L, thank you in advance.

[Velocd]

Yeah, I thought of that, but most people register under Revision 3 (being default) so it doesn't matter too much. Most hacks I've been installing within the last 3 months have only had changes to my latest style, since I'm not really fond of the other styles anymore... not to mention they are rarely used.

[Glock]

I got it installed, yet it shows up as a broken image. it also says Also note that the text is "cao" sensitive.

[Slynderdale]

Its a typo, it should be "case", right click on the image and click properties and then copy and paste the full url into your browser and tell me what the error you get

[drives fast]

I installed this and I also get this error:
Invalid image code for verification, press back and please try again
I saw this posted:
Also for some reason when i press agree and try to register it says invalid image code and what not yet it doesn't even go to the register page. Also there is no cache folder...
and I also have no cache folder and I cannot find anywhere that is says where it is supposed to go....if it is supposed to go in the images/verify directory....why does the images and verify directories not have to be chmodded to 777 as well?

I saw this posted right after:

I didn't see anything telling me to find something three times when I ran the installer

and the reply to that was:
Alright, great to hear, thats what i thought was wrong with it
where in the instructions does it say to find something three times?

my question is.....what do I do now.....I get the same error as a couple other people and I do not know what to do to solve it and I do not know where to create the cache folder since the instructions do not mention it other than what to chmod it to.

please help me

also...in the images...the upper case "O" is exactly the same as the zero...how will anyone know which one is there?

[Dan_UPC]

Does the name of the image file match the characters in the image? If it does, you may want to hash the file name.

[Dribbles]

Thinking about installing this, but just curious ... is there much of a problem with automated registerations on vB forums? Because I've never even heard of such a problem?

Yes, the name of the image file does match the chracter in the image, but the url used to point to the imagegen.php file hashes both the user session and the image file session, so theres no need to hash the names of the image files.

Try following the instructions in the Imgage Verification.txt file (without the install file at the top) and see if you installed it correctly, also you could of tooked to long registering, you could also try making the session limit higher.

Also for some reason the zip file didint include the cache folder, I'll fix the attachment in the foirst post right now and include it, sorry for that.

You dont find any thing three times, the installer php file wasnt clear enough and some poeple found things three times instead of one, I fixed the file.

Also as I stated in a previous post, these images arent that good, there demo images, If some ones willing to make new ones ill be most grateful.

Try turning GD 2.0 support off if you have it on


if ($imageverification_gdsupport) {
//ImageCreateTrueColor requires GD 2.0 or higher
if (!$img = @ImageCreateTrueColor($create_width,$create_height ))
DisplayError("Failed to create a destination image.");
} else {
if (!$img = @ImageCreate($create_width,$create_height))
DisplayError("Failed to create a destination image.");
}


Thats where the file generates that error.

[Glock]

It works in non GD mode...but I spend an hour upgrading PHP and all so i could use GD...

[Glock]

Also, it doesn't seem to be random. I've cleared my cookies and all and it shows the same set everytime.

[Velocd]

It's not random when you clear your cache, what it does is for every registration session it will use the same random image code, until a new registration session occurs.

Basically meaning if you are on the register page and keep clearing your cache and refreshing the page, you'll see the same GD-image code everytime, until you actually register. Then when you go back to register yet another time, it will be a different code.

[Velocd]

I checked with my host and it appears my server does have GD2.0 support, yet even though I've choosen the option for GD2.0 support and enabled it via Admin Cp, I can't seem to get it to work on the registration page. All I am getting is the box with the red X to signify no image being found.... :ermm:

[drives fast]

Try following the instructions in the Imgage Verification.txt file (without the install file at the top) and see if you installed it correctly
I will try that...I noticed that a lot is different in the txt file compared to the instructions in the install.php file

also you could of tooked to long registering
what you are not understanding about what I and others said is that you don't even get to the registration page for it to timeout. Just clicking the "agree" button on the rules page and then that error happens.

I will try again with the other file and do it all manually

thanks

Hmm, ill take a look at the code more, set that for no for now and see if it works, gd support 2.0 is to create true color images instead of a normal create image, I dot have gd 2.0 installed on my test server so I wasnt able to test the gd 2.0 support.

Also velcod create a pgp file with:
<?
phpinfo();
?>

and tell me what it says about your GD version

Yea, then you have the code in the wrong spot then, I updated both the install file and the install text with the right code before (I also would like to note, every time i update the zip, I delete it first then upload the new one, I find this help prevent the file from being called from the browser's cache and also a way for you to tell if I updated it)

If you follow the tet instructions and still get an error, tell me.

[Slynderdale]

Also for debugging purposes, I added error print out to the imagegen.php file, so if you happen to get a red x, right click on it and go to properties and then copy and paste the full url it gives you to your browser and then see what the error was, then copy and paste the error you get into a post or pm to me so I know where in the script your getting an error. For example, if th error says a file cant be found then you must of uploaded the images wrong and so on.

[Glock]

It worked once, and then not again. I switched it back to 5 minutes again, and now it's getting a broken image on one of them. Perhaps you should switch this to beta instead of a full release.

Hmmm, the hack works, me and a few others tested it, the only problems I found so far is the gd 2.0 support (which is optional, it just uses createtruecolorimage instead of createimage), the session limit is the time in secons, not moites, so if you set it to 5, that would equal to 5 minutes. Also whats the url to your forums so I can check it out.

[Slynderdale]

Oh yea, I also wanna point out, if your using the word list feature like Velocd is, The words can have spaces in it.

Im gonna try to get this hack completly bug free by the end of the week, I rushed through it a little so I can get to finishing my multiple attachent hack, Its on hold till i get this hack completly fixed.

[Slynderdale]

Ok i read up on GD, it appears that some builds of GD dont suport ImageCreateTrueColor even some of GD 2.0 builds, so if you have GD support 2.0 enabled and get a image create error, try disabling, its optional to have it enabled, same with true type, I added them so the image quality is better for those who systems supports them.

I also want to note that I updated the zip, I made a couple changes to imagegen.php, try clearning your cache before you dowload it though. If you get any future errors heres what you do.

Right click on the image (or images) you get an error from and then choose properties, then copy the full image url it gives you and paste it in your browser and copy down the error it shows you.

Then when you post, post the error it gives you, and your session time limit, the option your using, like the non-gd or gd and if your using gd 2.0 support or true type. This will help me figure the problem out better, Thanks.

[SS9267547]

Okay now most of the time the images all show and work fine. However sometimes there would be something like "iGWN7(Missing image)Sswn". Not sure what the problem might be.

It doesn't give an error just a blank page when I enter the image properties in my brwoser for that missing image but the other ones work and show the images.

The session time is 1800 seconds. I'm using right now the non-gd option, Image Verification GD 2.0 Support is no, Image Verification True Type Support is no, Image Verification Distort Output is no and thats about it.

If you have any ideas in what might be wrong let me know, thanks.

[SS9267547]

Okay I did some more testing, registered about 30 times and all of them worked but for two times where again one image out of ten is missing however this time instead of showing a missing image being displayed it shows only 9 of them and doesn't even show the tenth one. Just thought I would share that, maybe it would help in figuring the problem.

Btw Slynderdale great hack :)

[Smoothie]

anyone have this hack running 100%, all the time?

[94supratt]

I have it install. None of the changes I made in control panel worked. I wanted to use a custom word list however it would only generate random letters, not the words I listed specifically and I selected for it to use the word list not random characters.

[webhost]

I have installed this , but on registration page at bottom under image verification I only get a red x image does not show up.
Any ideas, I think image path may be wrong not sure?

[b] Got image working in your text file it uploads that

I tried to submit it but it says invalid number. and yes I payed attention to case. user got same problem will not except code

Ok it seems to work only one problem.

When someone goes to register page the red x is there, all you have to do is right click and click show picture then it comes up.

Any ideas on that?

phew finally we need the fixes all my new members are complaining that they can;t register i seem to be having to do a lot manually at the mo

Same here. I've been monitoring this thread, watching, and waiting until it seems that people aren't having mixed emotions about it anymore. I think it's a great hack. It just needs to be polished up a bit.

[.:.NetStartz.:.]

Well...I'll wait... ;)

[Slynderdale]

It should be completly done and bug free today, at the most, by tomarrow, this time im gonna throughly test it online for bugs.

but quick as u can is something that means quick as u can and not faster soz

[94supratt]

I get a red X. However if you right click and select "show picture" the image will appear. Any ideas why? I just added a disclaimer for people registering. To do so.

[msimplay]

when they use gd i also get that problem
it happens to everyone
the developer is currently finding out how to get around it

lasti heard he was testing it thouroughly with the new version

[94supratt]

I get it regardless if GD is off or on. Does that make a difference? The image will appear however if I right click it and select "show picture"

[msimplay]

check ur image verification options

change it to seperate images

[94supratt]

Yup that was the problem. I did it before I read your reply actually. I figured I left something out. Its seems to be working now. However for some reason some AOL members are having problems registering.

[Craigr]

It doesn't work for me.

Some images show, but usually one doesn't. :(

Craig

[webhost]

Thanks that also worked for us.

check ur image verification options

[msimplay]

lol my aol users had problems registering even b4 i installed the hack

Aol sux i tell ya always having problems with everything

[msimplay]

I've been having major errors with this hack

sometimes i cant register , because it wont recognise the characters

eg 0 O are the same

i tried all variations it wouldn;t work,

it works most of the time but i think this hack has major problems

whens the update comin out ?

[Erwin]

I suggest you upgrade to vB2.3.0 - it already has this feature built-in.

[msimplay]

my board is hacked so much i dont know how i'm going to do it :disappointed:
i do want to upgrade to that , maybe i will pay someone to do it for me when the final stable release of 2.3 comes out

[Gryphon]

Does this work with 2.3.0? I do not have GD so the 2.3.0 release will not work for me, I need the Non-GD option. Waiting to hear before I upgrade.

Thanks.

[msimplay]

yes it works with 2.3 but i heard hes gonna release a new version
but during that time i moved to release candidate three
i have gd
image verification is definitaly a problem
i used to have mass porn posters until i got this hack
but point it dont work as it should
my users used to have many problems registering
and the letters for the hack are not clear enough

[94supratt]

I had this hack working. I had it set up as non-gd. Well I moved servers and redid the hack. Now only some of the images show up and some show are red Xs. If you right click the red Xs and hit show picture they will appear. HELP! :(

[msimplay]

try reuploading the jpeg files and make sure they in binary

[94supratt]

Its kinda random. So letters show up and some don't its not the same ones all the time. I hit refresh and do it over and over and different letters appear. I have it set to use a word list. For example one of the words on the list is SUPRA sometimes the U and P are missing and sometimes the S and A, etc.

[msimplay]

uninstall the hack and try again
i know its a pain but i had to do this
infact i stopped using it i moved to version 2.3 release 3
but i didn;t have those kinds of problems

Yeah. That was 2 1/2 weeks ago and still no updated file. I had to disable this since sooooo many newbies couldn't register. :(

I definately see this at the top of this thread:

The hacker has agreed to provide support for this hack.

[msimplay]

lol me too
Erwin just sed update to 2.3 and i did pain in my backside it was too
with the amount of hacks i had :banana:

[Zombie-F]

Yeah, I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 hacks implemented, so it looks like I'll be clicking "uninstall" this weekend and spending all my free time hacking 2.3.

Is 2.3 in it's final release yet? I never got an e-mail telling me it was ready, but my admincp tells me it's the newest one.

i had to click uninstall
although it was a nice attempt at the hack
it wasn't functional

[yxboom]

I installed but disabled it since there were too many complaints that they see multiple Red Xs instead of just 1 Red X. I think I be waiting for a fix.
