The problem is that these administration tools were completely publicly accessible if you knew the URL. Yes, if you've got a torrent file from a site, you know the tracker URL and (your own) passkey. The issue here is someone could get the passkey that the admin tool uses to snatch from other private trackers.
If you can't see how that is an issue I have no words that can make that more clear for you.
- Dalewyn 4y agoThe article only ever talked about the contents of torrent files, so I hope you can understand my confusion. Yes, if the management tools were open to the public when they shouldn't have been then that is a big problem.
