Lowering the bar - example of modern coding by microsoft

by   Nicholas de Lioncourt on April 28 2021 02:15 zulu

THIS HAS BECOME THE MODEL FOR WRITTEN CODE (see the three images in this article).

Before inclusion into my projects, I inspect the code of others' published frameworks; even if I must decompile the assembly and run obfuscation-reversal utilities.

For what reason?

Well, take this non-sensical feast of vulnerability spaghetti, written by Microsoft GITHUB to satisfy the most undiscerning script-kiddie consumer!

Need I imagine where this embarrassment was written?

One of the salient justifications for NOT using others' "professionally written" code.

 

The first image is a typical example from Microsoft's GITHUB framework (with my comments as callouts).

After that, the next two images are from my personal project I wrote years ago (I will not publish the code I wrote for clients).

 

WHAT HAPPENED TO PRIDE IN ONE'S CRAFT? This is why hacks are so common now.

Oh, yes, OBFUSCATORS. In my experience, obfuscators are a waste of resources. I have not encountered one yet I cannot reverse.

Instead, coders, demand Microsoft provide the option to compile as native code into autonomous, dependency-free libraries like Delphi. The latter is difficult to reverse even in IDA Pro.
