Security Issue!

Post by mrlayance »

If you view my site on the top I have the radio stats that are generated by radiotoolbox. http://www.hipbase.com

Instead if showing
Listeners: 2/25
Current Song: somesong

I get this
Listeners: 2/25
Current Song: Hipbase.com Radio - Live Tragically Hip (Hipbase.com Radio - Live Tragically Hip) (Hipbase.com Radio - Live Tragically Hip) (Hipbase.com Radio - Live Tragically Hip) (Hipbase.com Radio - Live Tragicalpassword

Which shows the password of the shoutcast server. Any idea what is going on? Also I would try and create some to prevent this from happeneing to other people.

that is a shoutcast bug, if you see that then your shoutcast server is sending your password to all of your listeners. To avoid this do not listen to your own stream in the source winamp.
