I've been hacked *-*

Posted by BlaXun on Nov. 24, 2006, 8:32 a.m.

ok ok…"I" wasnt hacked….but Creators Worlds Highscore has been hacked ~,~

some guy with the name HackedJ00 got 5000000 value points…….I dont know if he directly hacked the scores table on my host or if he changed variables in the game…

I can only hope that GM7 will be more secure then 6.1

Oh, sidenote, I just finished the Fire Temple and got to the Water Temple…it sucks T_T

Ocarina of Time is such a great game…but with the WII around the conrer I hope I will have enought time to finish OoT once more ^-^

I just doodled a quick map for Creators world for those who dont really know where to find what…..

I made that REALLY quick, so dont expect to much >,<

Hope u guys understand this…feel free to ask me ^-^

You can't stop variable editing, even CPP has variable editing!

But you can DETECT it.

How?

Two variables.

myscore=0;

myscore2=0;

When you gain score:

myscore+=5;

myscore2+=5;

etc etc…

Then in the very end of an END STEP EVENT of the object that controls the score:

if myscore !=myscore2{

show_message("NUBCAEK")!!

game_end();

}

Doing that ChIkEn is not going to make it any more secure, why wouldn't the hacker just change both variables?

Anyway, the most common method they use is MySQL injections, so protect your scripts from those.

By the time he tries to edit the second variable it would have already exited the game. Moron.

Wow, I didn't know ChIkEns were smart….

Oh, I get it! ChIkEns are stupid, but ChIkEnXs are smart!

If I'd even know how their hacking tools work I could prevent em…

Actually, depending on how your highscore table works, they very well could have used a web browser to do it. GML_Josea is good with securing that kind of stuff.

I dont think so…I use a very long password with mixed letters and numbers…

either they know that password, my ftp account or they hacked the GM variables….the last option would be the easiest to do
