It has come to our attention, that it is VERY simple to abuse the N-line of a peer, and making a card look like a local when it actually isn't:
See the card in hop1:
N: 127.0.0.1 portnumber test tv 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14
See the card as local:
N: 127.0.0.1 portnumber test tv 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 256
This "trick" works in every CCcam version to date. It has some advanteges (you can control the number of hops you share), but also one very big disadvantage: People can show those card as a local, when it's actually NOT a local.
There is NO way to check this, except for the fact that the card might give some higher ECM-times then it should have...
Please be VERY carefull when handing out N-Lines. Make sure you trust that peer! Keep checking on the forum if those users are not posting in the CCcam Local section, with your card!
Or maybe even better:
"Withdraw all your N lines and use this "trick", you will be 100% safe YOUR card wont be misused and you have total control.
People who demand N lines, you will be the judge of that if you agree, it's your card and you decide how you want to share and keep control of it"
