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.

webhost · #23 07-15-2001, 06:12 PM

I put this in

chdir("/home/realweb/public_html/forums/");
require("./global.php");
chdir("/home/realwhttp://www.vbulletin.com/forum/newreply.php?action=newreply&threadid=21329eb/public_html/chat/chat/");

Now go here and see what we get
http://chat.realwebhost.net

Stasik · #24 07-15-2001, 06:18 PM

u has a small tipp mistake there

but as i have seen in link it works... replace "no" wiht page that means "chat is only for forum registered members... please login yourself or register" or so that

webhost · #25 07-15-2001, 06:25 PM

this is what I put in go to link and see result

print "/index.php3"; //Message if the user has no cookie
exit;

Stasik · #26 07-15-2001, 06:28 PM

you should write
require("./index.php3");

BUT IT WOULD NOT WORK!

you can foget the standart login page with this hack...

users without forum-accout can not use it

webhost · #27 07-15-2001, 06:30 PM

ok I changed go to link and see result

webhost · #28 07-15-2001, 06:38 PM

here is line 9 and 10 of my global.php file

// get rid of slashes in get / post / cookie data
function stripslashesarray (&$arr) {

Stasik · #29 07-15-2001, 06:38 PM

ups

i dont know php very good.. delete the line

replace "no" with HTML code

webhost · #30 07-15-2001, 07:05 PM

we tired I think the way you put require ./index.php3 in is correct problem somewhere else. I f you have it working could you direct to the url where I could see it in action?

Stasik · #31 07-15-2001, 07:16 PM

i`ll show you original php-code

~~
if ($bbuserid == 0)
{
print "<html>
Please register you or login you by our forum.
</html>
";
exit;
}
else
{
if ($bbusername == "" || (isset($bbusername))==0)
~~
