Re: Writing Secure code

Of course it's possible to write something that's not exploitable. However, it's tougher than most people think. For example, I've seen applications that the authors assumed were not networked whatsoever, and had no special local privilege. However, if the files they read and wrote were stored on a remote file system such as an SMB mount, then their otherwise non-networked program was completely exploitable.
