HASH() reverse

As others have pointed out, you can't reverse the hash(), but hackers have started using something called rainbow tables, which are huge indexes of stored hash values, to compare hashed values against as a shortcut in the process. By searching the rainbow tables, you can find possible matches to

Note in my first post I said "...You are ***supposed*** to be able to fix this by adding ..." I'm afraid my experience mirrors yours. However, did you try deleting the cookies your test system had already set to see if a fresh start solved the issue? That may be what it takes to get this accompl

Hence the need for salt I think. CF7's improved hashing algorithm support could be considerdd reason enough right there to upgrade, otherwise. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~| Logware (www.logwa

One last thing about that 'frivolous' example I mentioned above. The one with the user count. I think that the reasons for locking in the application scope -- other than the separate constants I also mentioned -- are likely to be compelling and nearly universal, if not completely so. A better ex

Adam is correct in that Sean's code allows unsynchronised reads - something that may be a huge problem under load in code that matters. It's easy enough to demonstrate with two templates and a sleep() to exaggerate the time taken to write inside the excusive lock (to easily generate the race condi
