I have Active Perl installed and I have the above text saved as exploit.pl

I can lauch it but I get this in return:

Quote:

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| PhpBB 2.0.15 Database Authentication Details Exploit |
| By SecureD gvr.secured<AT>gmail<DOT>com |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+


Usage:\r\n";
phpbbSecureD.pl SERVER DIR THREADID COOKIESTRING
SERVER - Server where PhpBB is installed.
DIR - PHPBB directory or / for no directory.
THREADID - Id of an existing thread.
COOKIESTRING - Optional, cookie string of the http request.
Use this when a thread needs authentication for viewing
You can use Firefox in combination with \"Live HTTP
Headers\" to get this cookiestring.
Example 1 (with cookiestring):
phpbbSecured.pl 192.168.168.123 /PHPBB/ 8 \"phpbb2mysql_data=a%3A2%3A%7Bs%3A11%3A%22autologinid%22%3Bs%3A0%3A%22%22%3Bs%3A6%3A%22userid%22%3Bs%3A1%3A%222%22%3B%7D; phpbb2mysql_sid=10dae92b780914332896df43808c4e09\"
Example 2 (without cookiestring):
phpbbSecured.pl 192.168.168.123


Could somebody please tell me what the next step is?

Id be very gratefull, I think I need to enter my own information but Im not sure where.

Thanks again.
