Warn HN: zoneedit.com
The new zoneedit.com site transmits login credentials in plain text. The login popup has a 'Secure Login' button, but this only misleads users into thinking their login credentials are secured when they are not.
From the packet:
POST /proxy.php HTTP/1.1\r\n
endpoint=Authentication.action&action=login&userName=hello&password=hacker+news
- ZeroMinx 16y agoHave you notified zoneedit? I've had several problems when I was moved to the new site.. Hope they sort it out soon, or I may have to go looking for another service. (Any suggestions?) FWIW, I can't log in at all right now, only getting the spinning circle.
- zoowar 16y agoI sent email to support@zoneedit.com and expect to hear back within 24 hours. I'll update the parent when I hear back.
- zoowar 16y agoIn the meantime, I'm giving https://www.zerigo.com https://www.zerigo.com a try. Their free service allows for: 3 Domains 30 Hosts 50,000 queries per month
- d_r 16y agoWhy not just use NameCheap? They have free DNS hosting even for domains that aren't registered with them and I have been using them for several of my domains that are still "stuck" with GoDaddy. I once had a support question about one of such domains during Thanksgiving break and they got back to me within minutes. That's customer service. (Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with them, YMMV)
- zoowar 16y agoUPDATE: No response from support@zoneedit.com in the time frame they established. I've moved on and found Zerigo meets my current needs.
- ZeroMinx 16y agook, cheers. I've still got quite a lot of credits in my zoneedit account :/
- lukeinth 16y agoI switched from zoneedit to zerigo not long after they had a period of extended downtime. I was also put off by them talking about a new admin which was coming. Blab about it after it launches not before.
- zoowar 16y agoUPDATE: day 2, still no response from support@zoneedit.com.
- zoowar 16y agoUPDATE: day 3 here's their response: Response (Amy M.) - 01/06/2011 11:07 AM Thank you for contacting Customer Care. The site is coded in Ajax and encripts itself to provide security. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with. Regards, Customer Care
- ZeroMinx 16y agoThanks for the updates. I had an issue with mail forwarding a few weeks ago. Mailed them about it but got no reply (problem was eventually fixed). Still seem to happen occasionally, not very happy with this..
- zoowar 16y agoUPDATE: day 13 It's been a while since they escalated the issue. 01/06/2011 12:23 PM This issue has been escalated to our system administrators for resolution. More information should be available shortly. In the meantime, please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.
