NFS Carbon - Savegame security issue

Post by edasx »

Hello,

I am writing here, because there's a big security issue with Need For Speed Carbon savegames and I think that the users should be warned as soon as possible. The problem is that the game CD-KEY which is used to access EA Nation and to play online games is saved in plain text format in the savegame file. Please warn all your visitors that they should not give out their savegames to anyone or they could face problems with their accounts at EA Online. Technicaly someone could abuse their CDKEYs!

Some more technical information is available at this website: http://www.nfszone.com/NFS_Carbon/FAQ/N ... Savegames/

Now the better things: I am attaching the link to the NFSC savegame (with "public" CDKEY) which contains the game almost completed with most stuff unlocked. Grab it here and feel free to post it on your site: http://www.nfszone.com/NFS_Carbon/Downloads/

And for the last thing: Would you be interested in exchanging links with my site? =) http://www.nfszone.com
If you do, check out the http://www.nfszone.com/Links/Link_to_Us/ =)

Please notify the users. This should be spread out as fast as possible.

See you
