I wanted to set up a monsta FTP server on my dashboard and have it automatically log me in to the server, but I learned that you needed a Buisness license, which costs MONEY. I couldnt let this stand. Luckily they ppl at this company had written their entire codebase in uncompiled, unobfuscated PHP and were trying to claim it as "not open source". I wanted some practice cracking software for future piracy stuff so, two days and 34 php.net tabs later and I made this script.

Also as an extra slap in the face, I wrote it in the monsta FTP editor.

```php <?php //Set mftp path and website url here because idk how to read CLI args in PHP $mftp_path = "/srv/mftp/"; $website_url = "";

//New license data $license_data = '{"email":"fuck@you.com","purchaseDate":1688671221,"expiryDate":4844344881,"version":"2.10.4","isTrial":false,"licenseVersion":3,"productEdition":1}'; $encrypted_license_data = '';

//Keypair $private_key = openssl_pkey_new(); $public_key_pem = openssl_pkey_get_details($private_key)['key']; $public_key_path = $mftp_path . "application/api/resources/monsta_public.pem"; file_put_contents($public_key_path, $public_key_pem);

//Encrypt license data openssl_private_encrypt($license_data, $encrypted_license_data, $private_key); $output = base64_encode($encrypted_license_data);

//Disarm license checker $affiliate_checker_path = $mftp_path . "application/api/licensing/AffiliateChecker.php"; $affiliate_replacement_url = $website_url . "/application/api/licensing/true.php"; $affiliate_replacement_path = $mftp_path . "application/api/licensing/true.php"; $affiliate_contents = file_get_contents($affiliate_checker_path); $affiliate_contents_new = str_replace("https://www.monstaftp.com/_callbacks/affiliate-tracker.php", $affiliate_replacement_url, $affiliate_contents); file_put_contents($affiliate_checker_path, $affiliate_contents_new); file_put_contents($affiliate_replacement_path, "<?php echo true; ?>");

//Turn ugly license into handsome license $monsta_license_start = "===== MONSTA LICENSE START (INCLUDING THIS LINE) ====="; $monsta_license_end = "===== MONSTA LICENSE END (INCLUDING THIS LINE) ====="; $monsta_license = ""; $monsta_count = 0; $monsta_substr = substr($output, 0, strlen($monsta_license_start)); while (strlen($monsta_substr) === strlen($monsta_license_start)) { $monsta_substr = substr($output, $monsta_count, strlen($monsta_license_start)); $monsta_count = $monsta_count + strlen($monsta_license_start); $monsta_license = $monsta_license . "\r\n" . $monsta_substr; } $monsta_license = $monsta_license_start . $monsta_license . "\r\n" . substr($output, $monsta_count) . $monsta_license_end . "\r\n";

//Done echo "Here is your license \r\n"; echo $monsta_license; echo "Paste it into upgrade menu \r\n"; ?> ```

I didnt really test it that well so comment if it needs edits
