Say no to pics in posts

The [/img] tag must be forbidden for security purposes. Cause Using MD5 hash i can know the author's password on forum.

I just advise

Whoa, i better change my pass. (lol jk) Anyway, thanks for advising us Venom.

[VEN0M]

And unfortunately you will have to delete all your sig's pics too.

But these things dont really matter. Forum has to be secure and not choking much bandwidth

That's not possible - phpBB does not store anyone's password, it stores the MD5 hash. You cannot get someone's password from that.

I don't really mind anyone taking my password and making immature posts, (unless i get banned ofcourse) so I'll just leave how I post the way it is. Thanks for the warning anyway

EDIT:

Hmm.. Ahh yes. Killer once told me that phpBB does not store passwords, which makes it more secure.

2Dominion spy: Password is nothing, md5 has is everything

[s0beit]

oh gosh, this thread is full of rifk.

1) a pictures MD5 hash is just that, the PICTURES MD5 HASH.

it does not contain your password.

2) md5 can be brute forced to reveal the word that was hashed.

- it can be brute forced (but a password of some decent length (+8 chars) 1000ths of years on a normal pc)

- you can compare it to a rainbow table. But those tables are large and take a long time to generate.

- you can search for a collision, but this is actually the same as brute forcing.

wtf is a rainbow table

[l2ebel]

/me brutes some rainbow hash and smokes it
