Title: Sniffer virus & remote passwd reset
Post by: siremi on July 10, 2008, 03:21:59 AM
- the Sniffer infiltration virus can now be used to do remote password changes, in addition to what it does
- the Sniffer has to run for at least 24 hours on the infected system and study the infrastructure before it can initiate a remote password change
- everyone but the owner loses admin on remote password change, including the one that installed the sniffer
- to activate the remote passwd change, access "Software" and click "Remote pwd change" marked in blue in your Sniffer command area
- Sniffer can be disinfected by Anti-Spyware AV

Practical uses of this include but not limited to password resets on NPC servers, inactive player Firewall / Pass Protect upgrades after password resets and disconnecting remote admin connections on target when initiating the remote password reset.

 I think you guys are missing the possible ramifications of this- This is ridiculously powerful if you can get it to get to the 24 hour mark. Im not going to give any hints, but Im definately going to start researching this!

This can be ridiculously powerful even at level 0.1 if you know servers which will not get disinfected for 24 hours...
