HTTP Upload Hack Version 2.0
 

Welcome to the new Update for the HTTP Upload Hack from Pseudomizer.

Do you need version 1.0 for this hack ?

No. This is independant from version 1.0.

What is new compared to the version 1.0 ?

- user authentification is now per config file or per VBulletin database
- new file extension filter to prevent unwanted files to be uploaded
- new overwrite setting to either overwrite or deny the upload
- usergroup authentification against VBulletin database

Changes:

- sessions have been removed because some people could not work due to register_globals off
- all variables are now $_POST and can not be passed via URL

Installation:

For new installs and upgraders:
Open the http_upload_config.php file in an editor and make the appropriate changes BEFORE you upload the files to your forum directory.

Upgrade from 1.0 to 2.0 only:
Remove the old files ( http_upload_config.php, http_upload.php ) and place the new files in the forum root folder.

New Install only:
Just place the 2 files into your forum root directory.

Enjoy it. :devious:

Again: I take no responsibility if someone accidently deletes important files with this hack. This hack is dangerous if misconfigured. So please READ CAREFULLY the config file. If you have any questions or something is unclear feel free to ask in the Thread. I would be more then happy to answer to every question.

IMPORTANT: Support will only be given if the install button in this forum thread has been pressed. So please take the time now to click the install button after your installation. Thanks. :classic:

Cheers,

Any screenshots needed ? There are no big changes compared to version 1.0 in the frontend but a lot of changes in the backend.

Cheers,

Where is a demo?

I will not offer a live demo to my forum, so people can upload any files to my forum root folder. Sorry, no way.

Cheers,

screenshot will be good tho :o

Here are some screenshots. They are in GIF format and due to the bug from VB i had to upload a zip file with the gif files. Enjoy.

can i set upload via usergroup and put upload quotas ie premium usergroup each member can upload to 3mb max
and admin usergroup unlimited etc etc settable by the admin ?

Nice job.

How do you want this implemented please ? If you want to set this per group then how do you want to measure how many MB has been uploaded by which group ? This is a simple HTTP Upload hack and nothing else.

What you are asking is something like an FTP server like War FTP where i can set specific limitations and options for groups and you can set permissions for each directory.

There is no way to implemente someting like this for a simple HTTP Upload.

My suggestion to you: If you need something like this then implement either an FTP Server or a SSH chroot environment where you jail in people. Then you can set specific quotas.

Tell me what you want to achieve and we can discuss this offline but not in this thread.

Cheers,

I might be wrong but I don't think you can upload more than 2 MB in most hosts since it is configured in php.ini . There's a way around that, but...I don't think your host will be happy if they found out. :nervous:
