Torrentleech：Vulnerability patched

Quote:

If you have any issues then head on over to our IRC (button on top banner). PMing me won’t work as everyone is doing that at the moment :

This week we have patched a SOLR vulnerability on torrentleech. We have not seen any evidence of abuse, but to exercise all due diligence we will be resetting all passkeys on Monday November 16th 2020 at 09:00 am GMT. We advise you to reset your passkey (so not your password, that is something else entirely) before this date yourself to minimize the downtime of your seeds.

Resetting a passkey means that any torrent you have in your client will stop working. You can either edit the torrents in your client, or you can redownload the *.torrent file from the site. You will then need to make sure to point your client to the right location to use the existing data on your hard disk. You can find the rest passkey button in your profile, in the “Edit” tab.

For your convinience we have added a new link to your profile. Click on your nickname on the main site and then scroll down until you see:


If you reset your passkey now then it will not be reset again on the 16th!

We have added a few guides for your convenience:
Mass edit Rutorrent
Mass edit Deluge
Mass edit Qbit
