Is there any hack that added "current password" and "confirm password" in update/view profile section ?

:rolleyes:
So, for anyone who want change his/her password, must enter the current password.

For increasing security, you know sometimes I left the forum WITHOUT logout in cafe.
Nah, If somebody changes my password I'm dead meat...... frown

Oh yeah, another security hole i found:

There is no automatic logoff for forum, unlike I login into cp.

I leaving it about for 20 or 25 minutes, the forum cookies is cleared. But I don't find this on UBB ver 6.01 (except login for the CP, it has auto-expired, but not forum login !)

I think kyo's suggestion to have a password field to type in current password would be good if users want to change password in the edit profile page. smile

Basically I think what he's saying is that he visits here from a public computer, and unless he specifically logs out, anyone could get in and change his password, without actually having to know it.
