SECURITY!
![]() ![]() |
Just looked at the code and the script has full access to your whole AE Account! // @include http://*.astroempires.com/* THAT IS JUST WRONG! ONLY AREAS THAT IT NEEDS SHOULD BE INCLUDED. SET INCLUDES ONLY TO AREAS NEEDED! Not whole AE Site!
I would change the INCLUDE to only areas it should have access! // @include http://*.astroempires.com/base.aspx*
I would add these EXCLUSIONS! // @exclude http://*.astroempires.com/
I'm not sure which take precedence Include or Exclude, but why take the chance. :) |

Since you favorited ae extras, which has the same declaration, it appears to me your only purpose here is to bash the competition. ae extras does have the ability to be a data miner and send all kinds of data, including account info, base and fleet locations, and scanner data, back to their server. This script, AE Tools, has no communication to any server outside of Astro Empires. That makes it impossible to steal any info or spy on anything. In fact, Ae Tools completely ignores the account page altogether but ae extras records everything. so you tell me which one is spyware. |

Paranoia and stupidity.

In line with Script Authors comment.. ARE YOU STUPID OR JUST PLAIN RETARDED? // @include http://*.astroempires.com/* This first line lets the page load on all Non-excluded pages. That is all it does.. lets it READ the page and insert the added code. The lines below stop it from working on any important secure pages like account, login, wiki, and forum. Having the bove line in the "excludes" section will stop page loading at all.. So stop trying to screw the competition just because his coding is 100x better than yours. // @exclude http://forum.astroempires.com/*

Mark is right. I've RTFS for any attempt to call out, which only occurs for version/upgrade. I recall at least one instance the AE Extras CP edition having the ability to call back and install new code that you wouldn't be able to view. I disabled it by finding all references to the server and replacing it with example.org. |
