Alert to LabY's mod users [OCN Thread] by Thrasillias December 14, 2015 at 8:12 PM UTC

Although this mod has been red-flagged by us as one which you cannot use (until further notice, at least), you shouldn't be using it at all, since it has some concerns regarding security.
TL;DR of this Hypixel's post:



English:

The Mod sends your Minecraft session token to a remote server operated by them.
What does this mean? Basically, they "reroute" your login token to their servers first, so therefore, they could be able to use it. In other words, they can steal your account's login abilities.

As the original topic says, anybody is accusing the mod author(s) of having malicious intentions, but this is definitely a risk I wouldn't take.

The Mod contains functionality that allows any files to be downloaded from a remote server to the user's computer without consent as well as some files being uploaded from the users computer.

This also doesn't mean that it's implemented with malicious intents. It could very easily be a function to download updates and upload crash logs, but it's there.



Español:

Aunque este mod ha sido calificado como un mod que no se puede usar (al menos hasta nuevo aviso), no lo deberíais estar usando en ningún caso, ya que tiene ciertas preocupaciones en relación a su seguridad. Este post es la versión corta de este post de Hypixel:

El mod envía tu token de sesión de Minecraft a su servidor remoto operado por ellos.
¿Qué significa? Básicamente, desvían tu token de login a sus servidores antes de que llegue a al servidor al que te vas a conectar. Por lo tanto, cabe la posibilidad que lo puedan usar, y por lo tanto entrar a un servidor como tú.

Como dice el post original, nadie está acusando al autor/es de tener malas intenciones, pero definitivamente, este en un riesgo el cual no tomaría.

El mod contiene funcionalidad que permite que cualquier archivo se descargue a tu ordenador desde un servidor remoto sin el consentimiento del usuario del ordenador, además de algunos archivos siendo subidos desde el ordenador del usuario.

Esto tampoco significa que esté implementado con intenciones maliciosas. Podría ser perfectamente una función que automáticamente descarga nuevas versiones y sube los logs de crash, pero la cosa es que existe.

I trust someone who coded a good anticheat system (best one in existence) than devs on a server who can't fix having to break an obsidian block twice.

So it's legal, 2.6 and higher is about to be legal on OCN and avicus most likely once para reads this, so don't go around telling me how the fuck to read when you have such a beaner IGN

No, because Badlion rules and our rules are not the same. We don't know exactly what's changed in the version that BL are allowing.

I just want to say LabyMod cotains Damage Indicator and Better Sprinting. These two mods are not allowed.

Based on what Hypixel have said about it, I don't think we would consider this mod legal, as it sounds like it may potentially give an unfair advantage.

Until the situation becomes clearer, please don't use this mod on OCN.

Yes, because BL seems to be one of the only servers who give a shit about their population, if they're claiming labymod is fixed, then honestly I feel anything saying otherwise is irrelevant as it was disallowed on BL before the update for pretty much the same reasons on OCN etc.

gobernment December 15, 2015 at 1:12 AM UTC

Alright, if I'm getting this right:
- Damage Indicators is removed.
- Security issues have been cleared up.

If the above are true, then yes, I'd allow it.
Can a developer/mapdev also confirm if we have damage indicators patched?

dcstarwars December 15, 2015 at 10:12 PM UTC

the damage indications havent been on in a while, his installation vid needs to be updated, and the third party thing is the host for their client chat system, its not malicious

After testing this mod and speaking to the developers, I don't believe there is anything in the latest version (v2.6) that is against our rules.

As always, it's your responsibility to check that you don't have any illegal modifications, and when future versions of mods come out you should check that they haven't added any features that are against the rules. But for now we don't think there is any problem with the current version of LabyMod.

Edit for clarity: You are allowed to use LabyMod 2.6

There have been claims it breaks the rule about "Enlarges Name tags"

Reddit UHC have complained and a mod author is making a version without that.

Hello ViceWatercolour,

          I was banned yesterday by you, and I was upset because my older brother went on my Minecraft account and went on servers and said inappropriate things. I trusted him with my account by broke my trust. I was so upset that I got banned because this is my favorite server and this is my favorite server. I just needed to say sorry, and really really want to be unbanned. I am not letting my brother on my account again. 

           Thanks,
