Does anyone else remember the friend graph visualization feature facebook used to have? It was an oddity, both because it seemed like a strange but useful feature, but also because it was a perl script.
One time I clicked it and got the source code to the file instead of the graph. It's somewhere on one of my hard drives, but it seems wrong to leak, especially since it has database credentials hard-coded into it.
- TazeTSchnitzel 13y agoI wonder if it was based on the code Zuckerberg used for the Java friend graph he had on his homepage prior to Facebook. Could you perhaps censor the credentials and release it?
- m0th87 13y agoI am not a lawyer, but even with censored credentials this seems like a bad idea. Especially since my profile is not exactly anonymous. Any Facebook employees want to get me a green light? :)

- minifig 13y agomanaged to save a copy of several files that appeared at the time - home.php, album, group, friends, photo, profile, readmessage ... code was an interesting read, as were the comments in it: // You fucking link h4x0rs just got pwned // Shortcut out of this CRAZY expensive garbonzle // What did we come up with? // don't display the Tuna album (aid=-1) // is this group a dummy meant to populate newsfeeds? // do not list the creator as harvard // keep track of tuna contexts // Merman's Admin profile always links to the Merman's profile // NOTE: ok, at this point we know we are going to display the full // page, so it is time to do a PHATTY PHATTY MULTIGET of all the shit that // we are going to need to make this page, or at least the most common things // Clear fire if desired
- micheljansen 13y agoCan anyone explain the strange obsession with tuna? Even in this index.php: // make sure big tunas haven't moved around
- tomphoolery 13y ago...do the credentials still work? :)
- uhohuhhuh 13y agoThe db was most likely never listening for connections from the world at large anyway.
- redwall_hp 13y agoIf their code was so easily leaked, it's not out of the realm of possibility...
- switch007 13y agothis was obviously computer misuse. although they didn't intend to show you, you saw the secret credentials. go straight to prison.
- philfreo 13y agoI got the exact same thing on the graph PHP page. It had database credentials, but they we're canceled out and replaced by some other constants.
