anyone here code exploits?
You mean exploiting weaknesses in software, such as stack smashing and various other forms of input failure?

But no, it's not, anyway :)
However...intelligent white-hat discussions on *preventing* them are ok, I would think.
Right, Cracker.
But who understands this word parksie? Surely not those kids that call themselves H4X0R5.
And what I wanted to say is that no one that codes exploits would be accepted here, which is another way of answering the original question (Are there any people here that programe exploits?) with No.
I've played around with them, but only as far as small functions and seeing what sort of effect the stack layout has on it. Nothing on big programs, really.Quote:

Well, then they're wrong in more ways than one, aren't they. Yes, some hackers will crack a system, but not do any damage. An email to the admins from root describing how you did it is usually enough, I think ;)
Ah, then go away!!!!
:D
Have you read "Coockoo's Egg"?
Nope. I think I've heard of it though.
Great book. Real story in the early internet time about a cracker, written by a sysadmin who chased him.
Is it the one mentioning things like honeypots?
Dammit, now I have to go and find it and read it =).Quote:

Honeypots? Don't know, but it is the only place I've ever seen the word "bailiwick".
Z: "The Cuckoo's Egg", by Cliff Stoll, ISBN 0-671-72688-9 (my old edition)
bailiwick - Irish (gaelic) means neighborhood - but also implies territoriality
I guessed such a thing.
B&N was all out of copies when I went tonight... Then again, my total was ~170 anyway =).
