HTS Basic Web 4

August 26th, 2007 by awesty

Other HTS Tutorials.

In this mission Sam has set up a script that will email him the password when he clicks a button. What we will try and do is make the email send to your email address instead of Sam’s.

Open up the page source and have a look for what could be the emailing script. It looks something like this:

<input type="hidden" name="to" value="webmaster@hulla-balloo.com">

We need to change “webmaster@hulla-balloo.com” to our own email address.

Copy the whole page source and paste it into notepad. Locate the line that contains the email address and delete webmaster@hulla-balloo.com and replace it with your own email address.
Also change “action=”/missions/basic/4/level4.php”” to “action=”http://www.hackthissite.org/missions/basic/4/level4.php”". Save it as a .html file and then open it in your web browser. The rest should be obvious.

I don’t get it, I did what you wrote, I changed “/missions/basic/4/level4.php” to what you typed, and I changed the email. But when I click send email in the opened notepad thing it dosn’t send an email to me, what did I do wrong?

Did you save it as a .html file and open it with a web browser?

To save the text file as an html file, in the save as box type is all types and then in the name type “4.html”

just make sure you save it in a place that you can find easily like desktop/my docs
