Yeap, hopefully the developer of forum slider will hop on here and tell us how this issue will be addressed especially for those of us who shelled out some serious coin for the Ultimate version of this hack.

I'm in agreement...

I see that the hack is gone now as i put it back and the redirect is no longer taking over my page where the slider is.

I have a question for the knowledgable. i want to have this monitor more than one thread on my site but i do not know how to write the RSS Link to do so. I can make it monitor one thread but have not figured out how to tell it to do mor than one. Does anyone know how?

Here is what i used for one thread:

Running v4.1.2

It does not pull images that are uploaded, only the images that are pasted into the post using a url address. I found this out going through the process...

Very sorry guys. Sometime last night it was was hacked by someone from buypoe.com testing the security of forumslider. Some of the members of bp are very smart, but very immature. The person who hacked it did have deep knowledge of the software on the inside.

With some help, it's now patched. Nothing on your side that you have to fix. Once again, sorry for the inconvenience

[wacnstac]

Um, right, so exactly how secure is it now. Can you tell us what the vulnerability was?

[daveaite]

One of the guys who helped code it left a c99 shell on the server and he used it later to access the files. It was more of a "stupid" prank, than a hack

If you want to read more about it you can follow the conversation here: http://buypoe.com/general-discussion...-security.html

It is secure, to our best knowledge. Please report any and all bugs to support@forumslider.com

[wacnstac]

Yeah, pissed off is right. Why is anything that goes through my slider being run through your site? I don't like depending on other people's servers for this very reason. Sorry but I can't recommend anybody shelling out the money that I did for this thing while stuff has to get piped through your server to make it function.

[daveaite]

Well I was pretty pissed about it too. The reason for it running through our servers is to protect the code. Half the software code is on our servers, the other half is on your server. It's sole purpose is fight piracy/copycats

vBSEO has a similiar functionality as well to prevent illegal uses of the software. Even the lite version runs through our server as well. It is on a dedicated server so it will be up 99% of the time.
