Thanks for the response but I dont know about the security issues.

Virtual War suffered a lot from public exploits and bad maintenance in the past.

There are several public exploits availbe which where not fixed due to the lack of developers. It even came to our attention that some hosting companys forbid their customers the use of Virtual War due to security reasons.

Since August, 2008 vwar is developed by a new Pubsliher with a lot of expierence in web application security related isses. Highest priority is to make Virtual War safe to use again.

The next version will fix all currently known security related bugs so that everyone can safely install Virtual War again.

We will also convert Virtual War to run with PHP 5 only and we will include ( http://php-ids.org/ ) which is a pretty nice security tool.

Currently the usage of Virtual War is dangerous and should only be considered by people who know what they do.
