one of my moderators was playing around and found this leak in the PM Mod: he was able to catch a reply i was sending to another member and simply replied me with his findings, including the text i sent to another member... is this problem known?

Now that I think about it, I do seem to remember something awhile back where you could just randomly put in #'s and it would sometimes come back with a PM from someone else. Thought it was fixed by now though. Is this what you are referring to?
As far as I know, if you have the very latest version, then you should not have that problem. It can be found: here |

privateread.asp is used to read private messages that you have received. privatesent.asp is used to read private messages that you have sent to others. You should probably update both of them.
But, I'm pretty sure that I did some other modifications, so it might be better if you replaced all of your files with the new ones. You'd have to re-edit them to fit with your site, but I think it would be worth it to have the latest version of it. |

crash, you might want to contact Huw first before editing any files. I think Huw had included some additional features in the PM Mod he has in his download. The Ignore feature I believe. This is not in the files I have for download, it is only in Huw's download. |

here's what my moderator had to say:
Ok here is the explanation, as for the fix I am having to tweak AU 4 to d oit and hammering that out as yet.
When a person is in PM, how far I do not yet know since I have only done the one attempt and got that result. or for that matter when they are anywhere in the forums you get the location and a link to that location. Now what I did did not take me into that PM Box, after sending it simply returned to my own, it did however place the replying to PM in the window with the message. I am going to have to do an if then statement specifically omitting PM's from becoming a link in AU any other pages I am going to have to test out might have you goto admin options once and see what happens, lol

fix found for it:
in the file active_users.asp, find the code (which i added myself - i see now) that says: strPage = strPage & fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_xxxxx) remove the red part from it to remove the clickable link!
may not be the best bugfix, but i believe that it'll do good as temporary fix!

Yes Active_users is what brought this bug to peoples attention a few months back, since then both the PM and Active Users mod have been re-released and if you've upgraded to them you should be fine.
