I keep receiving email messages from the forum regarding people who have attempted to register for accounts. The admin interface shows similar details to this:

Login: Lancer
E-mail: postmaster(at)blahblahpornsite(dot)com
Name: Lancer
Gender: Unspecified
IP Address: 0.0.0.0

So, I check the apache access logs and find this:

213.24.168.11 - - [21/Jun/2004:08:15:05 -0400] "POST /index.php?t=register HTTP/1.1" 200 401

I found one reference to these log entries in your search:

Is there an exploint in fud? Will I need to use mod rewrite to block this type of attack?

What is the problem? I see nothing wrong.

The IP of '0.0.0.0' is possible only in these cases:

1) There was no HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR ($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) header with valid entries and $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] was empty too.
2) Your PHP does not create/populate $_SERVER superglobal.
