CrackerTracker Exploit False Positives

[varagon]

When changing or adding banners I get this problem.

It's a new install, so I might have more problems.

Where is this "patch" for all the problems on cbtracker at?

Thanks!

[CaNNon]

The latest down load has the patches included. On a new install you will need to debug. Follow the directions in the first post, then post the logged info if you need a hand.

Hi again. I changed the admin banner file as described in the logmanager debug entry, posted below, but still get the same pink debug window.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Script-Filename: /admin/admin_banner.php

Request-Method: POST

Matching rule: or

Possible solution:

#
require('./pagestart.' . $phpEx);

Any more suggestsion?

I didn't quite understand the last page (3) of the linked post on debugging the files... quoted here:
http://www.integramod.com/forum/kb.php? ... =3&start=0

After changing the relevant file, change the Debug Mode in the ctracker/engines/ct_security.php from "true" to "false", so that there's no message in the header anymore.

If a php file requires "define('CT_SECLEVEL','MEDIUM');" code to be inserted in a file that has already been edited with CrackerTracker code, then you may need to edit the insert as follows:

This is how NOT to do it: (this is only an example)

define('CT_SECLEVEL','MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('message')
define('CT_SECLEVEL','MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('welcome_text')

This code would be correct:

define('CT_SECLEVEL','MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('message','welcome_text')

Happy Christmas, eh? <img>

Thanks a lot, again!

[CaNNon]

Code: Select all

define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'LOW');$ct_ignorepvar = array('banner_de.scription','banner_comment');

You can try this but I've never had to us a fix on that file, give it a bit though some one may have a answer.

The part your not understanding is syntax examples of proper and improper formating of the command and some examples. It's handy to understand that when you have to apply more that one fix to the same file.

[DjPorkchop]

So here is the million dollar question..... What do we do when we have done all the debugs that CTracker tells us too and no matter what we do, it STILL tells us to kiss it's A**?

Love having CTracker, but dam. lol Even it dont know all the answers but blocks them everything anyhow.

And I would say what it is doing it on, but there is so many things. Arcade, Classified ads, etc etc etc etc. Most of all Alerts that came up have been debugged but there are still some as I stated that no fix is to be had no matter what. This kind of shafts us out of creating a website to suit our needs if we have to do without and just go with a palin jane install. BORING!!!!! <img>

If anyone IS interested, it is as stated the activity mod on certain games And adding categories in classified ads mod.

[CaNNon]

I don't have stuff installed did you save the debug log?

[DjPorkchop]

Yeah....as a matter of fact I do have.

This one worked for classified ads

Code: Select all

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Script-Filename]------------------------------------------#/ads_create.php  ##-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------#define('IN_PHPBB', 1);  ##-----[ AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------#define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM');$ct_ignorepvar = array('submit','additional_info');  ##-----[ SAVE/CLOSE ALL FILES ]------------------------------------------## EoM

Now I can create ads

This debug did not work

Code: Select all

So now I can create ads and I have got to create SOME categories and sub categories. But others I try to create, it just wont let me.

*Edit*
Ok just for sh*ts and giggles, The category I was Creating was Merchandise For Sale I couldnt help but notice in the debug, the word OR So I changed the word For to Fer and Ctracker did NOT go off and I was able to create the category. <img> BUT I created another category with the word memorials and Cracker Tracker was never set off. Now Im scratching my Chin

[CaNNon]

Have to set it to LOW yet? That could help with stuff inside the fields.

[DjPorkchop]

Yep. I tried Low as well. I finally just ended up renaming the ctracker folder to -ctracker and set my ads up and adjusted some more stuff while I was at it.

Too bad i had to cheat the system, but had to get things in order. Im still playing with it though trying to find a fix.

[CaNNon]

Cheating the system no way, you just did a creative repair! <img>

[DjPorkchop]

[quote=""CaNNon";p="30557""]Cheating the system no way, you just did a creative repair! For sure. I still have some more to go though that I cant do a "creative repair" on. Like some of the games going off in cracker tracker for activity mod.

False positive.. applying this fix doesn't get rid of it. Error is when trying to add a KB article.

Can I ask, did you try setting the CT_SECLEVEL to 'LOW' instead of 'MEDIUM' and did it solve the problem?

Strange thing is, KB lets me post articles but one of my users said he got locked out by Ctracker when he tried.

LOL! With the great amount of help and support that I have gotten here, I just wanted to try and help out a little as well...that's what it is all about, right?

Thanks for the comments...

[CaNNon]

yep, was the same for me <img>

[BlahBlahCha]

Everytime i try to add a new Forum or category, that pops up and it says that it blocked a worm and so on, What's wrong? Hope you can help.

[CaNNon]

Check the first post in this tread get debug running and make the edit it says. if you still have a issue post the debug info so people can compare it to what they have done.

[BlahBlahCha]

Well, i changed it from false to true, but when i went back to my forum, i wasn't in debug mode. So i guess nothing happened, this message only appears when i'm editing a forum or creating one, it's odd.

[CaNNon]

You should have seen a CT block warning that it was in debug mode?

Also you may have to ftp into the CT folder and download the log.

[BlahBlahCha]

Well, i just opened my file manager and edited the code from false to true and saved it. Do i have to delete it and re-upload a new one? would that make a difference?

[CaNNon]

Aaaaa ....
You know after you save it you have to ftp it to the proper folder on your site? <img>

[BlahBlahCha]

Well, i edited it with phpmyadmin or whatever, and i "saved changes" So i didn't move it anywhere.

[Blue-Blood]

How do you debug?

What is it, a .script that will tell you how to fix your error problems?

[BlahBlahCha]

just rename the "ctracker" folder to anything, even if you just change one letter, then edit it, and then change the name back to normal. Be sure to be in your boards administrative panel before you rename it, worked for me <img>

[CaNNon]

It's better to do the edits as your kind of teaching it what you want it to do.

http://www.integramod.com/forum/kb.php? ... ticle&k=22
that will teach you how, one exception the newer versions of CT you have to get the log FTP from the folder.
Once you have a file name you just edit it and do the fix debug suggests.
If the debug doesn't work you come back to this tread and post the debug, it has enough info that
we can match it to ours and give you what edits we have done.

[Allen]

Umm I just found version 1.4.1g updated yesterday may 8th??? I downloaded version f april 23rd 2 weeks ago. and 2 weeks I spent debuging...

I am using 1.4.1f

Then I find version g just now.

First question, how do I upgrade from ver f to ver g? My admin window says I am up to date. Do I have to do a fresh install to get the new version?? All I can find is the full version and from 1.4.0-1.4.1 I need the one for 1.4.1f - 1.4.1g

[CaNNon]

I would do the new edits and not re install the full package. Helter posted the differences here: http://www.integramod.com/forum/integra ... t4940.html

[Allen]

So, you are telling me there is still no fix? This CTracker has been flawed for 1 1/2 years.. at least that is when this topic began...

Is there ever going to be a fix?

I am getting frustrated and honestly I dont think I can bring myself to edit this anymore.

I am starting to actually consider spending $160.00 and starting over with the "other" program.

[CaNNon]

I don't think your understanding the why Allen, CT is not broken or in need of a fix in the way you see it. As you know the package includes over 100 mods and CT can help protect whatever you wish to add if your willing to teach it. This is what makes it so good and yea I agree this can really be a pain sometimes.

[Allen]

your right, i am missing the why.. I would think that CT would already understand that PM's are allowed.. I just got a report of PM having CT warning. Real name in reg has CT warning. Couldn't the bulk of known OK action be patched or OK'd by CT before release?

[Allen]

really i am not trying to be difficult <img>

[CaNNon]

Do you have a debug for that? cause if you have the error I can compare it to my file and get you what I've done.

There are just to many files to guess, the package has like 10,000 small files when you include the bb2 and stuff I have on my site. If you don't have a debug turn it on and recreate what happened. We can help you but we do need a error so we know what were working on. <img>

[Allen]

So far I have added this to profile.php

define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('user_realname','helpbox','phpBBSecurity_question');
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.'.$phpEx);

Seems to have taken care of realname, PM(helpbox) and SecurityQuestion.

I asume I will eventually have to add all the user fields required for login in the profile.php as Ok ..

First user reported trouble registering so I had to add 'user_realname' then they could register.
I just had to add the 'phpBBSecurity_question' for a second user that can't finish registering..

Stop the Insanity!

[CaNNon]

define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('helpbox','delete','deleteall','phpBBSecurity_question','user_interests');

This is what I have for that file. I never needed 'user_realname' you had that returned in a debug?

[Allen]

Yes I got real name in a Cracker Log when a friend was trying to register. Now today I get a report of an error on the profile page where you set occupation. I do not see that in your .script either. here is the debug file,,, Makes no cents.

I don't have that var, I would guess something like "user_occupation" but hang on a bit someone may know/have it.

I've tried to keep all the posted vars edits, so I would have a kind of help record for them. So thanks for the one you've added. <img>

[BlahBlahCha]

I found a way to bypass the error that appears when doing certain things, Making forums, editing them, and sometimes pm's

Go to ACP/Security/Special
Once there, look under this message:

Warning: Setting any of the below to 'Ignore' will allow anyone to use these tricks on your site. You have been warned

And switch these two options to "Ignore"

1. Action to take in an SQL Injection attempt?
2. Action to take in a Sanity Mix Worm attempt?

I Strongly recommend that you switch them back to "ban" once you are done with what you wanted to do.

Works like a breeze <img>

[CaNNon]

BlahBlahCha, Thats not CrackerTracker thats phpBB Security and is a separate system.

I have no idea how or even if, that could help you in any way with CT debugging.

[BlahBlahCha]

I was surprised also, because i knew that it had nothing to do with Ctracker. unless it bypasses ctracker some how, they could be working together. It works everytime i turn those options off.

[CaNNon]

No bypass nor do they work together.
Maybe they matched a check both run at the same time on the same file?
In those cases debug should suggest the proper fix though.

[BlahBlahCha]

I'm not sure if that's possible, but you never know.
If this works, i have no reason to debug <img>
Plus whenever i try to enter debug mode, it never works.

[Allen]

My apologies if this issue has already been covered in this forum.

I recently had an issue with the send function of Chatspot. When I view the debug log the line it asks me to look for is not there,,,

This is a problem with CrackTracker catching the 'sent'.

Look for:
PHP: à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ º à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ¹ Select à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ºÃƒÆ’ ¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ¹ Expand à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ º
define( 'IN_PHPBB', true );


Then insert below:
PHP: à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ º à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ¹ Select à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ºÃƒÆ’ ¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ ¹ Expand à¢Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚ ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ º
define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM');
$ct_ignorepvar = array('sent');


That should fix you up. But before you do so, turn on CrackTracker debug and hop into chat. Use chat for a few minutes even if it doesn't work. View the CrackTracker debug logfile, to verify the issue was with 'sent'. Sorry I can't show my log, but I clear that log for my own debugging purposes periodically.

Any ideas on why the cracker tracker is asking me to find what is not there? Is there a different way I should understand the tracker? Also, is Omni-lee's answer the best answer?

[DjPorkchop]

Well fellas, I would NOT turn those 2 items off in phpBB security. Further more, yes cracker tracker is a pain in the ass. We all know that.

BUT do we all remember someone reporting a hacked site two and 3 times a day when Integramod was 1.4.0 with ONLY phpBB security? And I dont think caughing up the $$$ for the "Other SCript" is going to solve anything at all. I find the support on those sites shady at best. Pay for this, pay for that, pay pay pay pay. And nothing in return when you have issues. Integramod has dam good support for being....FREE.

I have cussed and screamed and hollered at CTracker until I was blue in the face but none the less, None of the 1.4.1 sites I have put up yet have been hacked. PhpBB , VB, IVPB, all of them are php and subject to hacking. One isnt any better then the other.

In the end, doing the debug is well worth it. Never ever take a site live until you debug. As stated before, you just need to teach it right from wrong. Though I do side with you that certain things should be exempt right off the get go such as registration info and stuff like that. That being said, I cant even help out with that area. Out of the DOZENS of IM 1.4.1 sites that I have put together for myself and others, have I ever got any CTracker errors on registration. I truly wish I could help but that I am just lost on.

Keep plugging away at it and before long it will be good to go.

I think I saw a post that someone had a webpage with all their ctracker patches, but I forgot and didnt save the page. I think it was cannon who posted it. Can I get the list?

[CaNNon]

I'd like to but i don't have any in viewtopic.php, I've never had CT go off on that one either.

[Allen]

I have found that CT does not go off on the first second maybe even third time using a function. But once you hit 3-4 it can go off.

[DjPorkchop]

I will let everyone know, One day before I was messing around trying to setoff CTracker on purpose and I noticed everytime I used any word that contained the letters O and R in consecutive order, CTracker would go off.

For example the words

For
Or
word
hord

Catch my drift? <img> Look for that when giving downloads, KB Articles and forums any de.scription or title with those tow letters in it. It almost will allways certainly set off CTracker.

usualy its in the logs trough ACP > CrackerTracker > Logmanager > Worm & Exploit Protection > View.

IF you could match the time and date to the log entries, I think you should find something like when not in debug mode! "/phpBB2/index.php?phpbb=<real>/~beogor/news/cmd??"

If your leaving that on just looking for debugs, be real care full what you debug you could easily allow a .script. <img>

*EDIT*
Sorry worded it better!

[Allen]

This is why I have asked here. I do not have any log of attack in the ACP > CrackerTracker > Logmanager > Worm & Exploit Protection > View.

Just the debug entry. Yes I am still debugging and debug is on. I do not want to allow a .script attack by adding the ignore .script so I came here and asked if what this is...

Let me know please I am waiting to do anything until I know from you.

[CaNNon]

Don't add it. It's in the debug log and not the attack log when its in debug mode.

How do you uninstall this trash program anyway?? its really a sorry ass joke "ctracker"

Agreed. I'm trying to put my CTmod in debug mode. I've done it before, but I forgot how.. it's not in the KB

[Allen]

I am having a tough time with the search function also. Since the new portal it has not been the same. It seems to ignore the smaller word when I am searching for a specific statement. I get results for just the larger word it seems. I am sure the box "Search for all terms or use query as entered" is checked.

[pangor]

Is there a comprehensive patch pack for all known failings of the poorly tested cracker tracker integration. Even with sites that have been running for years now, honest site members are being visited by that dreaded message effectively calling them criminals. Why has there been no such upgrade to say 1.4.2 been released with all such fixes already installed?
