Description

FreeDNS.afraid.org DDNS client sends the "Authentication Token" (update URL) in clear text. The FreeDNS.afraid.org website warns of unauthorized access to the update URL.

The code affected in dyndns.class file:

case 'freedns':
$needIP = FALSE;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://freedns.afraid.org/dynamic/update.php?' . $this->_dnsPass);

Thanks (and sorry for my bad English).
