Default If you have "Private" videos on FloWrestling, watch out...

because the video can simply be embedded to be watched on another page.

While doing some research on a tool I am working on, I came across a couple minor exploits..



Displays a video that is supposed to be private.

So, if you're trying to keep your technique hidden, watch out.. otherwise, it's nothing to worry about.

It really isn't a major problem, but something I thought I'd let the community know about in case you were trying to keep something private.

Hopefully they will get this fixed soon, because they also display in the RSS feed and it was autoposting these videos to TWT, AOL, and several other video sites.

I took them down, but not sure that AOL or others will..

(oh, and while they are at it, maybe they will fix their RSS feed titles so they don't all start FloWrestlin - FloCasts - VIDEO TITLE .. just the video title, please??? )

I'm not worried about the technique, more worried about all the matches I have on there.

I know last year I found a way to view "private" team videos through their site, but they have blocked that now. Hopefully they will fix this too.

Did you email them about this?

I hadn't yet, but they come here often... I'm sure they will see it. (but feel free to shoot Martin an email)

The problem is that the videos aren't actually secured at all where they are hosted.. If it displays where anyone can find out the title (thereby letting you know what you are looking for), the video can be grabbed and embedded.

I just did it the easy (very easy) way in the example above, however, there doesn't seem to be a simple way to really stop it completely.

But I think somehow, it's my fault.

We have a similar situation here with the "private" groups - posts will still show up under the "latest posts" box...

I can remove yours if you want, however, I left them in there so people could see a little blip of what is talked about to draw them in...

Its up to you though, if you want to be excluded.

I don't care. It's not like we're plotting to take over the world or anything.

... or ARE we.....

Isn't that what the internet is for... taking over the world?
