Overview: IDG's website for conference registration performs client-side validation of "Priority Codes" before being processed by the server. Issue: These codes are simple MD5 hashes included in the javascript. In the case of MacWorldExpo, one of these codes allowed for heavily discounted "Platinum Pass", valued at $1,695. Result: The "Premier Pass" permits full access to the conference including the Power Tools series, MacIT Conference, Users Conference, Market Symposium, Keynote (special line and seating so you will be able to see it), Free Lunch, etc. Total cost after hack: $0.00 Details are blogged at: http://grutztopia.jingojango.net/2007/01/your-free-macworld-expo-platinum-pass_11.html This issue has been resolved by IDG and the conference is over. I wasn't the only one who found it, just the only one who told them. -- ..:[ grutz at jingojango dot net ]:..
