PHP Browser with Fake Header info

[imperium2335]

Hi,

 

I have tried using curl to send fake header info to a target url and then display that website as if I had gone to it via a hyperlink, but it isn't working. It seems that curl just shows the page through my domain which isn't what I want.

 

Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

That's the whole point of displaying the URL of the actual site you are on, to prevent people from being able to trick visitors into thinking they are on a different site. If it was possible to do what you are trying, there would be fake phishing sites all over the place.

What do you want?

Hi, basically I want to be able to visit a site via a hyperlink generated by another of my scripts, and have it send fake referrer info to the server, so it doesn't look like my requests all came from www.example.com.

 

Thanks for your replys.

If you want to do what I think you are wanting to do then what you want to do is not possible, unless you own all of the domains which will belong to the "fake referrers".

Well I was hoping to make the target website think i came from a number of different referrers like google.com etc etc. If that's not possible can you withhold referrer info all together?

Again, if you're trying to do what I think you're trying to do then no. The referrer information comes from the browser, it is up to them whether to send a referrer or not: your website cannot say, "don't send a referrer for the next page".

If I open a fresh window and paste in a web address then the referer will be blank (i think?) Is there any way to do it like that where a new window is opened for each web address?

curl_setopt($conn, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'foo.com');
