It seems not to be working! when I take a look at installed packages it says this:

failed attempt of quickmod2 exploit

I have this at my two forums

Smf version 1.1.10

Did anyone has/ had the same problems?

It told Installed successfully but when you look at installed Mods it says: failed attempt of quickmod2 exploit....
Admin panel> installed Packages>View and Remove Installed Packages

29. SMF 1.0.18 / 1.1.10 / 2.0 RC1-2 Update 1.1 [ Uninstall ]
30. Fix for log spam due to failed attempt of quickmod2 exploit 0.1 [ Uninstall ]
Or is this okay? perhaps it's named like this after install but the discription wasn't this informative!
So someone who installed it has the same?

Unless there were any 'test failed' errors during the package install then everything is working successfully.

QuoteUnless there were any 'test failed' errors during the package install then everything is working successfully.
no errors were shown and install went smoothly only the text is a bit strange or it's just programmed to show that text. perhaps some more info and correct info would be appropriated.
But I think all is working fine..
Why not call it:
30. Fix for quickmod2 exploit 0.1 [ Uninstall ] would be more clear for us all

@ Realinfo: when a hacker tries to brake in by using a quickmod exploit at your forum the attempt gets blocked this I know so far

The fix is just for the error log entries.

There are no known security problems with SMF. If there was, we would release an official update rather than letting people rely on a mod. This security problem was patched a long time ago. What the mod does is prevent the log entries saying "Hacking attempt" if somebody tries to use this old exploit on your site
