Question

All day I was looking an answer on this question:
How to log in vbulletin, without using password.

For example I send username in request to module and it logs user in.

All I found is:

verify_authentication('username', 'pass', '', '', TRUE, TRUE);
process_new_login('', TRUE, '');

or

verify_authentication('username', '', 'md5(pass)', 'md5(pass)', TRUE, TRUE);
process_new_login('', TRUE, '');

But I haven’t got no password neither md5 hash, I have only md5(md5(pass+salt)).

Can someone help?

Found solution. All we need is user id.

    $vbulletin->userinfo = fetch_userinfo($userid);
    vbsetcookie('userid', $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'], true, true, true);
    vbsetcookie('password', md5($vbulletin->userinfo['password'] . COOKIE_SALT), true, true, true);
    exec_unstrike_user($vbulletin->userinfo['username']);
    $logintype = ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '6') ? 'cplogin' : '';
    process_new_login($logintype, TRUE, TRUE);
