Custom page to login to Yahoo, Gmail, MSN etc

Question

Hey all

A friend of mine just designed a page and added the yahoo and gmail login boxes to it. Now, it works. What I want to ask is this. If I he was to host it, and use it to login to yahoo, gmail whatever, would it be secure? My guess is it wouldn't be, but I could be wrong. By secure, I mean will it be possible to sniff the username and password when he uses this page to login?

The code for this file is as follows. Also, the page is a regular HTML page (.htm) and not ASP, PHP etc.

<html>

If he hosts it securely, using "https" to access it, and it links to the various services securely, using "https", then it should be reasonably secure.

"https" uses encryption.

No, you should use as much security as you can.

I'm saying, though, that if the page you posted is itself accessed securely, via HTTPs, then you've taken a reasonable first step.

Access from that page to the various sites, should already be secure.

No, I don't think it will be secure. If you use the page you posted, over an insecure connection, people can see, for example, the cookie data being transmitted from the page to your browser.

I don't know. I'm guessing gmail (as an example), does hash the passwords during sign in. This is in addition to the secure http channel used. If you take a look at the code, I don't think it's being encrypted anywhere.

What do you think?

goldeagle2005 33 Finkus Stinkalotus Team Colleague · Answer 2 · 2006-05-04T21:14:00+00:00

So you're saying that I could pass the username and password without hashing it, but use https and be assured of a relatively safe transmission?

The page (whose code i posted) is hosted on Geocities, so https is out. In this case, if I use the page to login, it willnot be secure, right?

I guess what I'm asking is: even if I use https, will it be as secure to use this page as it is to use gmail's home page? I'm guessing it won't be.

If possible, can you please examine the code and let me know ?

I want a gmail login box on my website as well since i saw one on www.startlap.hu.
It is a hungarian website. Check it out. U may don't understand a word, but you'll see the login box on the left. I want something like that. have a look at the codes too!

NOT SECURE

Google will find iut and put it on its search engione. Than anyone can find it and log in to the services on the page without knowing the user name or password.

treepex 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 6 · 2007-10-09T14:28:31+00:00

If it's unsecure, then google would removed it. I guess. But this is clearly not the case. This is one of the most visited website in hungary.
I think i will contact google directly.

I mean your idea of automatically logging in to a website from a web page on click of a link is insecure. Google would not notice that as being an insecurity. It will find the page and list it.

You can't have a "hidden" page on your website that only you can access. Google will find and index all pages on your web space. I put one in, just to keep from using my Yahoo download bandwidth when I start browsing (instead of loading my full homepage). Nothing links to it except the homepage setting in my Firefox. Yet, I found it on Google while looking for something else.

I'm not going to read all the above posts and assume some people have already said this. A lot of schemers and crackers use "custom login pages" as a tricky way to acquire your password/login information. The reasons for their doings vary, however they're pretty much all out to get you in one way or another.

I strongly suggest avoiding anything but the pages on the companies login servers. So if you're about to log in to Yahoo.com, make sure you're on yahoo.com logging in. Same with gmail, hotmail, myspace...and so on.

Someone knows how to apply this script in the accounts Google APPS?

Wrong. :P

You can use a robots.txt file to tell search engines not to index it, or you can put HTTP encryption on it.
