by Steve Kessler 06 Oct '08

I am not using any PHP. In Show block for specific roles: I have anonymous user checked and then in page specific viability settings I have Show on only the listed pages selected and then I have the path content/contact-coredinated-movement for the page listed.

flickr photos from group
by Kyle Gordon 05 Oct '08

05 Oct '08

Hi all, I'm wondering if it's at all possible to integrate Flickr group photos into Drupal 5? I have the Flickr module installed, and it seems to work well for photos from my personal account, but I'd like to use it to display photos from a group that I administer. Any hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Regards Kyle -- Kyle Gordon - 2M1DIQ Web: http://lodge.glasgownet.com Jabber/Email/SIP: kyle(a)lodge.glasgownet.com

Strange behavior of upload in drupal.js
by luca capra 04 Oct '08

04 Oct '08

Hi all, I've got a multisite installation of drupal 5.10. In the main domain, when adding an item via upload form (or imagefield) the server give me back an error keeping the animation running. The #redirect-target has inside the json data but trought firebug I get a "data is null" referred to line 131 of drupal.js This is caused I think by this line (about 56) /response = (iframe.contentWindow || iframe.contentDocument || iframe).document.body.innerHTML; /that say (from console.log) "Permission denied to obtain the property Window.document" This happens on various browsers and only in the main site (upload in subdomains works well). (maybe a theme related error?) Did somebody ever had a similar problem ? Cheers, Lu

Privatemsg Access Denied Error
by Brett Evanson 03 Oct '08

03 Oct '08

I posted this on the privatemsg issue list, but I thought I might get a bite off the support list, too. I get an Access Denied message when I go to /privatemsg However, when I go to /privatemsg/msgto it works. I have the "Access Private Messages" Permission set for authenticated users. I'm logged in. Are there any known modules this doesn't play well with? Stuff like OG? When I log in as admin, it works fine. It definitely seems like something screwy with permissions. I have cleared cache tables and my browser cache multiple times. Please help! -- Brett Evanson

Passwords in Drupal
by Daniel Carrera 03 Oct '08

03 Oct '08

Hello, This isn't a question but rather a comment. I'm not sure if this is the right list to bring this up. I just noticed that Drupal stores user passwords as a simple MD5 sum: md5($password) Sure, MD5(passwd) clearly beats plain text, but I was hoping for something better. In particular, I was hoping to see secure salts and maybe other security features. The current system has vulnerabilities. You can compute the hashes for a standard dictionary of passwords and compare the hashes. Some passwords are very common ("password" and "password1"). I just tried it on my system an I found 6 users whose password is password. Because MD5 is a very cheap function and there are no salts, a dictionary attack is quite easy. I understand that there are already millions of Drupal users and you can't drop MD5(pass). But I can still suggest a simple upgrade path that results in a secure hash. A future version of Drupal (e.g. Drupal 7) could use a hash of the form: $salt = "uqYmV7yoUFYLQ5AspBK"; // Anything long and random is fine. $hash = hash_hmac('sha1', md5($passwd), $user_id . $salt); There, simple. The last parameter the key, but we only use it as a salt. Notice how each user gets a different salt. This makes dictionary attacks more difficult. I use HMAC rather than SHA1 because it has great key-mixing properties. With SHA1 the salt ($user_id.$salt) would have important weaknesses. If a future version of Drupal used this hash, it would be easy to migrate users from previous versions of Drupal. The upgrade.php program would grab the password field - MDF(pass) - and user id of each user, compute the new hash, and store that back into the password field. For brownie points we could add another step that runs the hash through a slower compression algorithm like Blowfish or Serpent. The idea is that if computing a hash is more expensive, we can foil dictionary attacks more effectively. What do you think? Daniel.

Performance with APC/cacherouter
by Marolijo / Pol Maresma 03 Oct '08

03 Oct '08

Hi, I'm on a performance issue. On my server (VPS/Centos/Plesk) I have performance issues. I'd cheched I'm not out of memory/CPU... I'd installed APC and configured it with cacherouter I'd reared some guides like this http://drupal.org/project/cacherouter http://buytaert.net/drupal-5-performance But now my system is working well when serving cached sites (i tested it with ab) but sometimes the homepage is still served very slow (10/12 seconds sometimes). I assume it's when cache is created? The site I'm testing on is http://www.gravat.com The modules I use are CCK/Views/Slideshow/Ubercart. Thank's a lot!
