About one month ago, I began seeing guests(3 to 5 at a time) camped out at the login area for up to 30 minutes. We also started experiencing script timeout errors as a result, making it impossible to access the forums.
During that time, On the online users screen some strange entrys started showing guests in places such as admin options, invalid locations, forums, and active topics.
Could this just be a software glitch or do you feel guests are breaching the security of the software
The software we are using is SHN V9 using an Access Database.
Our memberbase is 5961 members...
Are there any security holes that might be allowing guests to get past the allowed(hidden)members feature that you know of?

no guests are not breaching it, even if I am not allowed access to say admin_home.asp, if I attempt to open it it will get recorded by the active users mod.
also, if you are using SHN forums then you should post that there, it is not standard Snitz, and active users is a MOD and not part of the current or previous versions of the Snitz code. |
