ok , this is the first hack i post around here so i hope im doing it ok
if not mods please fix me :P
ok, this hack is ment for closed comunity of vbulltien forums that want exstra security against unwelcome guests
this hack adds HTTP Authentication which change acording to username / password
to make the security bit higher i added ip ranges part - mean every users got ip range and if his ip is not wellcome then its not let him in
(can help abit against shared account).
ok so lets start
// run this db query
PHP Code:
ALTER TABLE user ADD ipmasks varchar(250) NOT NULL default '';
ok, now u got 2 options :
option1 - put it only in root dir
option2 - put itin root and on admincp/modcp dir
ok
if option 1 then
// open root/global.php
find :
PHP Code:
require_once('./includes/init.php');
Below it add :
PHP Code:
//HTACCESS Hack + IP restriction
if (!isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])) {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Restricted area"');
header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
echo "Unauthorized login attempts are logged.\n";
echo "bla";
exit;
} else {
//checking database
$userinf=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT user.password,user.userid,user.salt FROM user WHERE username='$_SERVER[PHP_AUTH_USER]'");
$isvalidip=0;
if($userinf['userid']){
// if user exists check if ip is valid $REMOTE_ADDR
$validip=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT ipmasks FROM user WHERE userid='$userinf[userid]'");
$validip=explode(" ",$validip['ipmasks']);
foreach($validip as $testip){
if ($testip=='') { continue; }
if (strstr($REMOTE_ADDR,$testip)==$REMOTE_ADDR || stristr(gethostbyaddr($REMOTE_ADDR),$testip)==$testip){
$isvalidip=1;
break;
}
}
}
//checking if the user login is ok & that he connects from a valid ip
//HTACCESS Hack + IP restriction
if (!isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])) {
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Restricted area"');
header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
echo "Unauthorized login attempts are logged.\n";
echo "bla";
exit;
} else {
//checking database
$userinf=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT user.password,user.userid,user.salt FROM user WHERE username='$_SERVER[PHP_AUTH_USER]'");
$isvalidip=0;
if($userinf['userid']){
// if user exists check if ip is valid $REMOTE_ADDR
$validip=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT ipmasks FROM user WHERE userid='$userinf[userid]'");
$validip=explode(" ",$validip['ipmasks']);
foreach($validip as $testip){
if ($testip=='') { continue; }
if (strstr($REMOTE_ADDR,$testip)==$REMOTE_ADDR || stristr(gethostbyaddr($REMOTE_ADDR),$testip)==$testip){
$isvalidip=1;
break;
}
}
}
//checking if the user login is ok & that he connects from a valid ip
This will put a HTaccess popup box on all your regular forum pages. As for the admincp/modcp, it might be easier to just change the location of those to something else (can be edited in the /includes/config.php).
Make sure you don't have any extra .htaccess files with an additional htaccess/htpasswd, else it's gonna get messy
So how can I get this with the redirect to work with 3.5.3 ???
really need this
If anyone wonders how to refrain banned users from accessing (bypassing the http auth), change their password. Now they're banned from http auth and the board itself.
