Hi.... it is my first hack - phpProbe

here is it... it was tested under vbb2x RC2 and phpMyChat 0.14.4

News:
Updated on 19.07.01
- FAQ has been add

Updated on 18.07.01
The hack is compatible with version 0.14.5 of phpMyChat
- there is some javaScript code there, so the hack will not work with browsers without JS support (phpMyChat will not work with these browsers too

)
- the Exit link in chat works ok now

Hack:
Step 1:
open /lib/index.lib.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:

PHP Code:


			
// Fix some security holes

replace it with

PHP Code:


			
//a VBB integration hack by Stasik (stasik@t-online.de)

//v0.1

//(C)2001



$exiturl = "http://www.blabla.com"; // the url the user will be redirected exiting the chat



if($Ver == ""){print "

<HTML>

<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\" LANGUAGE=\"javascript\">

    <!--

    var NS4 = (document.layers) ? 1 : 0;

    var IE4 = ((document.all) && (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>=4)) ? 1 : 0;

    var ver4 = (NS4 || IE4) ? \"H\" : \"L\";

function defineVerField()

    {

        if (document.images && ver4 == 'L')

            document.forms['Params'].elements['Ver'].value = 'M';    // js1.1 enabled browser

        else document.forms['Params'].elements['Ver'].value = ver4;

    }

 -->

</SCRIPT>

<FORM ACTION=\"index.php3\" METHOD=\"POST\" AUTOCOMPLETE=\"OFF\" NAME=\"Params\">

<INPUT TYPE=\"hidden\" NAME=\"Ver\" VALUE=\"L\">

</FORM>

<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\" LANGUAGE=\"javascript\">

defineVerField();

document.forms.Params.submit();

</SCRIPT>

</HTML>

"; exit;}



chdir("/path/to/board/");

require("./global.php");

chdir("/path/to/chat/");



if ($bbuserid == 0) 

{ 

print "no"; //Message if the user has no cookie

exit; 

}

else

{

if ($bbusername == "" || (isset($bbusername))==0) 

{ 

$getusername=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT username FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserid"); 

$username=$getusername[username]; 

$bbusername = $username; 

}

else 

{ 

$username = $bbusername; 

} }



$U = $username;



$pat = "[[:space:]]"; 

$repl = ""; 

$U = ereg_replace($pat,$repl,$U); 

$pat = ','; 

$U = ereg_replace($pat,$repl,$U); 

stripslashes($U); 



$N = 20; 

$D = 10; 

$Form_Send = 1; 



//Replace admin with your administration nick

if($U != "Admin")

{

$PASSWORD="1";

}



// Fix some security holes

Step 2:
open /lib/index.lib.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:

PHP Code:


			
$DbLink->query("INSERT INTO ".C_MSG_TBL." VALUES ($EN, '$E', 'SYS exit', '', ".time().", '', 'sprintf(L_EXIT_ROM, \"".special_char($U,$Latin1)."\")')");

        }

    }

replace it with:

PHP Code:


			
$DbLink->query("INSERT INTO ".C_MSG_TBL." VALUES ($EN, '$E', 'SYS exit', '', ".time().", '', 'sprintf(L_EXIT_ROM, \"".special_char($U,$Latin1)."\")')");

        }

    }

if($exit == "1"){header ("Location: $exiturl"); exit;}

Step 3:
open /exit.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:

PHP Code:


			
<A HREF="<?php echo("$From?Ver=$Ver&L=$L&U=".urlencode(stripslashes($U))."&E=".urlencode(stripslashes($R))."&EN=$T"); ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

replace it with:

PHP Code:


			
<A HREF="<?php echo("$From?exit=1&Ver=$Ver&L=$L&U=".urlencode(stripslashes($U))."&E=".urlencode(stripslashes($R))."&EN=$T"); ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

ENJOY

FAQ:
Q: I`m getting "no" every time.
A: You need to upgrade a cookie option in your VB control panel. Write under: Options->Change Options->[HTTP Headers and output]->Cookie Domain your domainname ONLY (blabla.com).

Q: I`m getting "you need to register" error.
A: Enable chat using for not registered users in your phpMyChat config (/config/config.lib.php3).

Q: I`m getting "wrong password" error.
A: Make shure you have deleted all user accounts in your chat and have only administrative one. If you are logging is as administrator note that you have to enter your password EVERY time you are logging in.

Questions or Bug reports?
Post it here I`ll answer ASAP.

Hi

you have to allow the chat-use to unregistered useres (using setup.php3 or manually in config file)

--OR/AND--

you have to delete all users from chat and leave only Admin-nick

bye

BYE

webhost · #15 07-15-2001, 04:53 PM

I am waiting to upgrade my chat until 15.0 comes up.

Here is the url http://chat.realwebhost.net

Here is the link to my forums http://forums.realwebhost.net

I have attached the zip file. I did try to place code where you stated and I tried this for the paths
board path I tried http://forums.realwebhost.net and also tried http://www.realwebhost.net/forums I think it should be the first one because that is how I get to my forums.

Niether worked gave a error saying bad path.

Then I tried chat path the same way switching the word forums with chat and I got the samew errors.
I have attached the file

Stasik · #16 07-15-2001, 05:06 PM

enter a hack code before:

"require("./${ChatPath}config/config.lib.php3");"

for the both path i will need a tree of your server.
