Hi,

Don't know if this is correct or if what they are trying will work, but I thought I would tell you guys about people trying to hack our sites.

They seem to be trying to enter html code into product reviews. Don't know what it what as I deleted it immediately.

I have spoken to other ecommerce owners (not VP) and they have the same at sporadic interval.

Don't know if older unpatched versions will let hackers in this way, but if you are not fully patched it's probably worth your while patching.

Maybe we need to approve reviews before they are published. Does this feature exist??

Built for the future

I just started getting this problem. What patch is needed to block the htlm's on the reviews? Did it stop yours from coming in? I do delete them ASAP myself but I see it could get out of hand. They are coming in more and more everyday. Thank you Cindy

Hi there

We are working with the creators of the CAPTCHA script to resolve this. We have a new version of the script for version 700 and are working on seeing what is involved in backwards engineering this so previous releases are protected.

In the meantime we recommend enabling the admin review feature if you have not already to remove the impact on your live site.

In the online Set Up search for xratingauthorize and set to Yes. This will resolve the issue for earlier versions.

Will keep you updated on what happens for this one.

Thanks
Cam

Hi All,

We have updated the Captcha code for version 6.50 and have this available as a beta patch.

If you are experiencing this issue, please get in touch with us through our helpdesk at http://helpdesk.vpasp.com and we will forward a copy of the patch through to you.

The installation process for updating is extremely straight forward, however we would like a few customers who are experiencing the spamming of their forms to test this out first to ensure it does block the spammers before making the patch generally available.

Regards
Michael
