I found a strange thing when i'm coding a net-spider to a specific website.
I used fiddler and chrome(as well as other web-browsers) to log-in a website(HTTP, not https) and get all package(as well as the cookie) that sent and received:( first package 'Get' to request the log-in page and the cookie, then use the cookie received to request verification code and some other pics. and then send login request with userid, password and verification code to server and server response with correct info)
Then I log-out and Clear all Cache and Cookie and use Fiddler to Relay(Simulate) the whole process (Since I know all packages' format that i should send): request the log-in page to get cookie, use the cookie to request all pics( auth code image included), and then use the cookie and auth code to request login(userid and password are correct)...but failed.
I'm sure the failure is not caused by invalid userid or password or auth code, and i believe there is nothing special on the front-end(html,script are checked), but it puzzled me a lot how can the server tell i used browser or not in back-end..
I'm not request anybody to solve the specific problem. i'm just wanna know DOES ANYONE HAS HAD SIMILAR PROBLEM i described?
the specific website is not important and i must say the whole practice is completely harmless! i'm not doing any hacking stuff, on the contrary it will help some people.
====================================================== I've finally figured out the reason: the log-in page has a hidden input() and i carelessly overlooked that since its value looks almost the same every time. Web server can not detect replayed log-in attempts if we simulated all necessary HTTP request packages. Thank you guys~
