I need to do what that cgi script does with php, and also spoof the referer... any way to do that? thank you if you can help!

Not sure about the whole spoofing the referrer thing, but the rest can be done by combining some various php functions.

Basically, all this cgi looks like its doing is pulling the content off of the page, stripping out the tags that aren't checked, and ultimately writing a local file with the rest of the remaining text.

Take a look at the php manual at some of the following functions:

htmlspecialchars(), addslashes(), stripslashes(), html_entity_decode, etc...

There are others in play here, but I can't think of them off of the top of my head.

well... see, the thing I need to do is spoof the referer and browser and OS for the hdc wargame level 7... and the spoofed stuff has to be sent to the server...

Build your own little HTTP GET or POST (depending on what they are expecting) to fake the user agent, referer, etc. Just don't cry when they find out what you are doing! 😉

There are plenty of classes out there, here is one that I have used in the past: http://lwest.free.fr/doc/php/lib/index.php3?page=net_http_client&lang=en

Have fun...

I cant seem to get that class working... I get a 404... and the document has to be there, because if I go there with my browser, it works...

see phpclasses.org
section HTTP, lots of classes there for this purpose.

the first one will be "Advanced HTTP Client". its is pretty cool

url for it:

it works better then the other one... but every time i use set_header() I get an error... do you know of the correct syntax of this functin... I know that I have to do set_header($header_name, $value);

but I get an error when I try to do:

$http_header->set_header('Referer', 'http://www.yahoo.com');
$http_header->set_header('User-Agent', 'MSIE 1.33.7(compatible; MSIE 1.33.7; Bolix 0.01)');

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in D:\Server Files\Xitami\webpages\include_class\advanced_http_client\get_test.php on line 16

I just need to send the headers! ARRR.

for user agent:-
$http_header->user_agent = "MyAgent name";

for referer:-

when u call the get function

first parameter is URL, second is whether to follow redirects, thrid is the referer

😃

simple enough . eh 😉

benkillin

err... its not working:

<?php
$useragent = 'MSIE 1.33.7(compatible; MSIE 1.33.7; Bolix 0.01)';
$referer = 'http://www.yahoo.com';

require('include_class/advanced_http_client/http.php');
header( 'Content-Type: text/html' );	
$http_client = new http( HTTP_V11, true);
$http_client->host = 'www.hdcwargame.com';
$http_header->user_agent = $useragent; 
if ( $http_client->get( '/l3vel7s-ev3n.php', 0, $referer ) == HTTP_STATUS_OK){
 $http_header->user_agent = $useragent; 
 print( $http_client->get_response_body() );
	} else {
 print( 'Server returned ' .  $http_client->status );
	}
unset( $http_client );
?>
