// Cutenews <= 1.4.5 admin password md5 hash fetching exploit
// Version 1.0
// written by Janek Vind "waraxe"
// http://www.waraxe.us
// 23. dec 2007
// Estonia, Tartu
//
// FEATURES:
// 1. Fetching algorithm optimized for speed
// 2. Attack goes through $_COOKIE, so no log fear
// 3. Pretesting saves time if Cutenews is not vulnerable
//
// More useful tools: http://www.waraxe.us/tools/
