Ravans Script bites again

[Heather]

Thanks all we have now got it working agian the smenu.php is also encrypted so we over wrote that file as well with the MCCODES smenu.php file

Here is the file decrypted.

Someone a while back posted every file that ravans script encrypted in decrypted form. I have every file if you need them just ask. This is the staff.php file

and smenu.php

Just a hint, from experience...

It's never a good idea to just replace files. MCCodes may not be built well enough to detect unlinked dependencies, but in the long run something could go wrong.

On another note...

From what I see is that it's a simple callback to ravan[]info, so in theory you should be able to:

a) modify your hosts file for ravan[]info to point to localhost & create a spoofing file, which returns a static and valid output of what ravan[]info would.

b) would require a bit more research into the technique used by R, but from what I can see is creating a file /tmp/LIC_KEY.cdk with data "codelock|expiry|checkback|checksum|extras".

I'd suggest B, although I might be wrong.

The site admin panel is now working agian but now we seem to have a problem with the homepage/login page loading up very slowly and also missing data like "Mobsters Online" "Reg Users" The home page is also a custom page done by Bluetrendz so something has now gone wrong with that and its been fine for way over 6 months, But once logged into the game it runs fine. The only files we over wrote were staff.php and smenu.php so whether this is somethign else to do with those two files I dont know

[Heather]

Found out what is now causing the problem with the site loading up slow on the homepage/login page

"Your script is making a call to an external server that is taking a very long time to respond: ravan.info.

There is also a file, that while only 14k, is taking a long time to process: /home/xxxxxx/public_html/core.php

This file seems to contain encrypted data that is taking awhile to process."

 

I am guesing that the call is being made from that encrypted core file

LOL this guy knows how to create problems

[mixmaster]

Well he wasn't selling an illegal script to make you happy now was he lol :)

No he wasent lol and i wish i had never come accross his site in the first place, but I am so glad that his site has now been suspended and I hope it stays that way for ever lol

Just an update on what we are doing for others who have the same problems if you got caught out with Ravens Script.

Our host is now going to create an entry in the servers host file that would cause our server to handle the requests it makes to ravens.info

So here is a really big thumbs up to Hostgater and all of the users on here who have helped us with this and I really hope that raven is gone forever

Pm sent to you with your core file decrypted. Good luck and you are correct it does phone home like ET...

if(!file_exists("license.php"))

{

die("License Not Found !!");

}

require "license.php";

Thank you for your help

Well the Ravens site is back up. I am now going to contact his host and point them to MCCODES and posts on this forum about him selling the MCCODES game engine without permission to do so. If anybody else wants to do the same his host is in the USA and is http://altushost.com/contact-us.html I am so sick of this guy now.

I admire your admiration, though it's not likely that they will do anything.

They require a court summons before they will even touch R.

You are probably correct but the more complaints or DMCA complaints they get the more they might just do something about it as copyright issues are pretty hot atm

[Spudinski]

They are in The Netherlands, DMCA doesn't count there.

Edit: Also, their copyright bill was created in the 1800s. When digital information was still just a spec of dust in the eyes of some mathematicians.
