Got a two questions I was hoping a someone could answer for me!

1) If I set the cookies bbuserid and bbpassword manually and then go to vBulletin, should I be logged in?

2) What value is stored in bbpassword? Obviously some md5 format of the password. But when I compare bbpassword cookie to the value in the database, it's different.

Cheers!

Hmmm, helps if you search the forums I guess.

I swear I'd looked for this before and couldn't find anything but just did another search and found about eleventy million threads on the exact same topic.

Sorry!

Did you find the answers you were looking for then?

Yeah, found the answers to the above questions. Have opened up about 20 more questions but am finding the answers to those as I type this.

Cheers!

The password cookie uses this formula:

PHP Code:


			
md5(md5(md5($password) . $salt) . $license)

Noting that $password (above) is plain-text, not the hash from the database. If hashing the database's password:

PHP Code:


			
md5($hashedpassword . $license)

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
