I'm getting a very similar error as was mentioned in this thread

I upgraded to ibProArcade v2.7.2+ yesterday and I'm getting this error at the top of the index page of the arcade.

Warning: stristr() [function.stristr]: needle is not a string or an integer in [path]/arcade.php on line 5550

The arcade is functional and when I go to play the game, that error is gone. When I go to submit a high score, I see the same error, but on two consecutive lines. My high score is able to submit properly and there doesn't seem to be any noticeable issue... other than the glaring error at the top of the page.

Just updated and also have this error.

@Hippy

I tried those changes and it did not effect this error. The error points to line 5550...

I've looked at the arcade.php file and line 5550 comes up as....

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

The full context of this section is...

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Any help would be appreciated.

compare v2.7.1 and 2.7.2 and remove or comment out that code and the link above
stangger5 posted what will work in replace of till Mrz figures out the issue
it fixes the security issue

I updated 20+ arcade and 1/4 of them don't like this code..
it's a server issue I am guessing

I have used stangger5 fix but was getting the reported issue with stristr on a customer forum.

I did the below edit, code will do the same and is simpler.

In arcade.php search for the ibp_cleansql function, search for

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Add below :

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Then search for :

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Comment it out :

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Add after :

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

That does the same but is fairly simpler...

Though I must admit that Mrz fixed the 2.7.1 security issue rather uglily...
That bit of code could remove actual correct content ...

[stangger5]

I didnt upgrade to 2.7.2 for just two edits..

My one edit to the arcade.php file and the mod_arcade.php..

So my arcade doesnt have any of the:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

code..

Thanks for the code update VBDev !!

so it should like this ?

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I been using stangger5's edit and works on every update I did..
I am just wondering at this moment.. thanks

[VBDev]

Yep.

Dunno why but I didn't had that error on my install but a customer had the issue.

Anyways I don't know the root cause of this function but honestly that shouldn't be done like that... It removes potential words from comments for example... That sucks

Thanks for the code update VBDev !!

But if I do understand those fixed a security issue but I guess you fixed it manually

[stangger5]

The security issue was s_id,, which allowed it to be a string when it was supposed to be a int,, that is what allowed the exploit.
Comments should be ok because of the way strings are put in the database..

Yeah, hence what I said he over corrected...

IMO, IBProArcade really needs a cleanup of the code one day...
