Possible exploit found in Spyrochat
I noticed that the SpyroChat sends usernames and passwords in URLs. With the right stuff (I don't wanna go to details) I logged every URL I go to, including this:
http://www.spyrochat.com/index.php?rand=748745461&su=Doppelgangergang&pw=<REMOVED>&
That's the actual URL, minus my password of course. Seriously, if I am running a network and applied my magic on a router, I would have captured your logins when you go on my network and went on Spyrochat.
What do you think?
EDIT: I can also see it on my History.

Re: Possible exploit found in Spyrochat
I've noticed this ever since I got on the site. Since you could have seen our passwords, something needs to be done.

Re: Possible exploit found in Spyrochat
Also, I have demonstrated that I can impersonate people.
I can use a program and punch in "DragonFireOKN" and I can chat under your name.
Change your passwords regularly.

Re: Possible exploit found in Spyrochat
And doppel, you CANNOT sniff the communications from other people logging in UNLESS they are on the same LAN as you. Its all SERVER side, none of other people's login info passes through your router. It goes from their PC to the Spyroforum Server, where they are authenticated and get a session id unique to them.
I don't know where you came up with this crazy stuff about you being able to log other members over the internet.

Re: Possible exploit found in Spyrochat
No, it's just a "what-if" scenario for example.
Also, do school/work administrators can log URLs the students/employees go to? I think they can.
(But say hello to my SSL home proxy. :devil:)

How the heck did you ever think this was a fight? Don't dig up old threads.
