Greetings.

Havent touched PHP in about 3 years now, and the need came to code again, so i'm not very secure of all the stuff i'm doing, since i feel i forgot most of what i knew  :(

 

Anyway, this is the login code for my future site. Just want to see if anyone could find any failure, security breaches, better ways to do things... or whatever.

Anything would be helpfull.

 

(this is the correct forum for this, right?)

 

 

The vars come from a normal html form from main index page.

"login.html.php" is a stripped version of that page, with the form only, oposed to having a Logo, images, and whatnot.

 

<?PHP

if(!empty($_POST['username']) AND !empty($_POST['password']))
    {
if( !eregi( "^[a-zA-Z0-9]{4,14}$", $_POST['username']) OR !eregi( "^[a-zA-Z0-9]{4,14}$", $_POST['password']) )
	{
    	$error = 'Invalid Username and/or Password!';
	require ("login.html.php");
	exit;
    	};

    require ("includes/dbconnect.php");
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
    $db = mysql_query("SELECT user_id FROM user WHERE username=\"$username\" AND password=\"$password\" LIMIT 1") OR die ("Error!");
    $count = mysql_num_rows($db);

    if($count == 1)
       {
       list($db) = mysql_fetch_row($db);
       setcookie("OGNBuser_id", $db, time() +5400);
   setcookie("OGNBusername", $username, time() +5400);
       setcookie("OGNBpassword", $password, time() +5400);
       echo '<html><head><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=news.php"></head></html>';
       exit;
       }
       else
           {
           $error = 'Login failed!';
	   require ("login.html.php");
           };
    }
    else
        {
	$error = '';
        require ("login.html.php");
	};
?>

<?php
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
    $db = mysql_query("SELECT user_id FROM user WHERE username=\"$username\" AND password=\"$password\" LIMIT 1") OR die ("Error!");
?>

 

SQL injection

 

try password and username as alphanumeric

<?php
$username = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/", "", $_POST['username']);
$password = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/", "", $_POST['password ']);


?>

 

Cookies can be spoofed try sessions or a DB session (use Salt+HASH)
