Why would my V2 validation fail?

Open razzerar opened this issue 4 years ago • 8 comments

I have had reCAPTCHA V2 on my contact form for 1 year without a problem. Now since 5-7 days it has stopped working and i don't now why, all responses fail all of a sudden. I have done 0 changes on the site or any of the files for several months. If you tick the checkmark in the ReCaptacha box you will get the error "Validation Required!" which is the response given if the validation should fail as you can see in the code bellow.

Anyone got any idea why it would stop working just out of the blue when 0 changes has been done? I have had 10 different people try to use the contact form but everyone get's "Validation Required!" as an error.

Can recaptacha get blocked by the server firewall or something?

    //reCAPTCHA validation
    if (isset($_POST['g-recaptcha-response'])) {

            require('component/recaptcha/src/autoload.php');

            $recaptcha = new \ReCaptcha\ReCaptcha(SECRET_KEY, new \ReCaptcha\RequestMethod\SocketPost());

            $resp = $recaptcha->verify($_POST['g-recaptcha-response'], $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

              if (!$resp->isSuccess()) {
                            $output = json_encode(array('type'=>'error', 'text' => '<b>Captcha</b> Validation Required!'));
                            die($output);
              }
    }
