Whmcs remote license check

Awmusic12635

It would seem my whmcs license is reporting invalid, most likely due to the ddos attacks today against whmcs. I forget, what is the URL to force a remote license check ?

https://DOMAIN/cart.php?licensedebug&forceremote

Thought best edit your full install link

Thanks, after doing it, it seems it's timing out still. Hope whmcs gets their licensing fixed up soon

With all of the downtime they've been experiencing I've disabled this on my install to prevent people from messing with my license while their license server is offline.

@KuJoe Yeah probably not a bad idea, I'm guessing that's in the config file?

Doubtful. Probably have to block it in the webserver.

@Fliphost It's simple PHP code int he configuration.php file.

if(isset($_GET['licensedebug'])) { unset($_GET['licensedebug']); exit('No'); } if(isset($_GET['forceremote'])) { unset($_GET['forceremote']); exit('No'); } if(isset($_GET['revokelocal'])) { unset($_GET['revokelocal']); exit('No'); }

Why would you even unset the $_GET.....

if ( isset($_GET['licensedebug']) ) die('Contact support if you need to see this information');
if ( isset($_GET['forceremote']) ) die('This function is disabled for security reasons');
if ( isset($_GET['revokelocal']) ) die('This function is disabled for security reasons');

Thanks for the tips. And i thought about putting rewrite rules to block/rewrite these requests

Don't forget to put "]".

That's a nicer way. I got my code from a veeeeery old post.
