Port scanning hosting providers like BisectHosting is also possible, as the subservers do not have to be hosted in the same domain. To carry out this exploit, tools like NMap are used to scan the ports of that IP, potentially revealing subservers to connect to. Because of technical restrictions, Spigot subservers must be in offline mode, meaning that anyone can directly join from any username, regardless of whether the main Bungeecord is premium or cracked.

For example, if :25565 is the main server, the Spigot servers may be hosted at :25566 or some other port. Bungeecord servers serve as a link between several Spigot servers, which allows for thousands of players to be on a single network at a time. This method exploits the structure of the Bungeecord server. The vast majority of OP exploits performed are using this method. This is probably the most popular way to ForceOP on a server. This works because people use the same password across multiple servers. Players would register using a password, and then the owner of that cracked server would try that username and password across popular cracked servers. Using a password that is not common would obviously fix this, and blocking the IP if too many failed login attempts occurred over a short period of time would also work too.Īnother similar application of this is where someone creates a cracked server and uploads their server to some server listing website (like PlanetMinecraft).

This obviously will have a very low success rate, but this method is one that will always work. People tend to use commonly used passwords and not unique ones, which is why clients like Wurst have a "ForceOP" hack that tries the commonly used passwords to login. In cracked servers, players have to set a password via "/register password" to prevent others from logging in under their name. It doesn't matter how many likes or comments the video showcasing the hack got, it's still fake. Searching up "ForceOP hack" on Google to get them will guarantee that you get a virus on your computer. If all it takes to OP yourself on a server is to download some shady exe file, surely there would be hundreds of servers getting hacked daily, right? Real ForceOP hacks take effort to carry out, and never work on big servers like Hypixel. Well, the majority force OP hacks out there are fake.
