    A few days ago I created an account at www.youtube.com and logged in.<br>After watching some animes I closed the browser without logging out.<br>Today I visited that page again I found myself being logged in as another user<br><br>Maybe my session has expired and when that user logged in he got assigned the same session?<br>Keep doing this everyday and maybe someday I'll be logged in as the admin? <img alt="\&quot;:D\&quot;" src="%5C">

    btw, does anybody know how to download videos from youtube.com straight to computer?<br>i have had found a way how to do it some time ago, but recently they have changed the construction of their program and now i cannot do it anymore.<br><br>btw, i am wondering how can it be that for example, if i saw video on firefox, then turn it off and later turn it on again, video is already loaded and doesnt need to be downloaded again? it seems like browsers can cache the video but sadly, i havent found, where are they caching it <img alt="\&quot;:noclue:\&quot;" src="%5C">

    What u can do is use this site http://javimoya.com/blog/youtube_en.php and enter the link to the video. <br>It then gives u a link to download. Later u will need a FLV player to play the videos. I use FLVPlayer.<br><br>see ya<br><br>ps: found a ff extension too, but didn't try it yet.

    Or you can just decompile the flash and get the link from there <img alt="\&quot;:P\&quot;" src="%5C">

    I use the livehttpheaders extension for firefox to look for the real location of the video.

    session numbers are typically 128bits ... meaning even if everybody on the planet logged in 10 times a day<br>it would still 5*10E27<br><br>now this is what the youtube cookie looks like<br><pre> Cookie: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=AoiTcQrjxSk; use_hitbox=72c46ff6cbcdb7c5585c36411b6b334edAEAAAAw; user_omniture=3756d44ab2f6fdee26892cc5805390c2dAEAAAAw; GEO=0c471c12cce542a30221900da0a67ea0cxYAAABCRSx2YW4sbWVjaGVsZW4sLCwsLC0x; LOGIN_INFO=5294f2f2fb5cf32793997ac072c6fba6e3QgAAAAbV91c2VyX2lkX0FORF9zZXNzaW9uX251bWJlcl9tZDVzIAAAAGQzMjdlNmUzMGVjODBmMTBkYTJhY2E4NjE0MDAwYWZhdAkAAABtX3VzZXJfaWRsAgAAAFBccQgw </pre><br><br>feel free to analyse that but it would suprise me if there is less than 64bit possible settings

    Although it's hard to believe, the session collision happened to me again a few days ago <img alt="\&quot;:D\&quot;" src="%5C"><br><br><br>However, this time, the session seemed to have expired. When I clicked on any link, I got back to my account.<br>So maybe this has something to do with YouTube caching mechanism (there is one, haven't you noticed? <img alt="\&quot;:P\&quot;" src="%5C">)<br><br>PS: No, I haven't given up on using Linux - it's just that my work comp still runs Winblowz

    I'm decompiling the LOGIN_INFO cookie..<br><br>Originaly it's: bb04346ad5d28bc38c6a3957ddc4bf0ae3QgAAAAbV91c2VyX2lkX0FORF9zZXNzaW9uX251bWJlcl9tZDVzIAAAADU4OTQ1ZDVhYmRmNjc5OWFlNjkwYjNjYjhmYTc3MjVmdAkAAABtX3VzZXJfaWRsAgAAACtbXA10FQAAAG1fYXV0aGVudGljYXRpb25fdHlwZXQIAAAAUEFTU1dPUkQw<br><br>When I base64 decode it: m½8ßwvñ·7ñΚßÞ{u×8mý{t &amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;m_user_id_AND_session_number_md5s &amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;58945d5abdf6799ae690b3cb8fa7725ft &amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;m_user_idl&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;+[ t&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;m_authentication_typet&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;PASSWORD0<br><br>You can see there a few plain strings and a hash: m_user_id_AND_session_number_md5s , m_user_idl , m_authentication_typet , PASSWORD0 , 58945d5abdf6799ae690b3cb8fa7725ft<br><br>&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533;&amp;#65533; is probably a seperator..<br><br>The hash is 33 chars long so it's not md5, but as you can see one of the plain strings says \"md5\".

    I just try to say that the session hash is only an md5.. Only 128 bits. There are lots of trash in the cookie..
