Source is So Poorly Programmed It Allowed Hackers To Access Your

This is old faggot.

Is global rule 6 enforced on these stupid breathes in threads? Inb4 im a valve fanboy.

I don't think you understand. That doesn't erase it from ever happening, like you seem to be suggesting.

many game engines are not written with security in mind, it's not indicative of them being "poorly programmed", they just don't see it as an issue during development

i can guarantee that any given game engine will have a number of RCEs just waiting to be found

>>385105397
Source engine is well over a decade old and has received numerous updates. This is a direct "indication" of complete incompetence.

> In other words, merely shooting at an enemy could cause your machine to be remotely hijacked. The exploit was identified by One Up Security (via Motherboard) who notified Valve.

Can't get hacked if you don't get hit.

Git gud fgt

>>385105397
Hang on, I'm sure there's an exploit for Unity that would allow me to rape you with my penis through the internet...

Oh wait

This post is direct indication that you have no clue what you're talking about and are purely getting a pathetic rise out of shitposting about a decade old engine (already patched) from a company I can only assume touched you in a special place.

Get a fucking life.

>>385105658
>(already patched)
Only took 13 years. You sound pretty upset? Maybe you should learn to look at things objectively instead of like a manchild.

>>385105658

>>385105478
im not a valve fanboy, i know source is a joke at this point in terms of tech and capabilities

however it's pretty disingenuous to suggest that number of patches is equal to quality
game engines are huge messes of code, it's hardly surprising that something that has been used as long as source receives updates

>>385105527
are you five years old? "i can't see something so it doesn't exist"
look up the definition of a zero day for a start, or don't talk about things you don't understand

>>385105836
not him, but do you actually believe that someone's a fanboy of a fucking engine of all things? also, Valve fanboys don't even exist anymore. do you want to discuss this thing or do you just want to have a reskinned console war thread where you can spout your favorite insults? yes I am a valve fanboy, OP, whatever floats your boat

>>385105853
By Valve or the hackers? This could have been abused without anyone knowing for years.

>>385104935
That's not true, there are no hackers in video games, you're just bad.

unless these people are looking for a folder containing 78 gigabytes of furry porn they're not going to find anything

This hasn't been news since 2006, where were you.

>>385106007
>whataboutism
the hackers. do you have any evidence people were abused by this exploit?

BLIZZARD ALWAYS WINS BABY.

>if you die, you get hacked

This seems like a pretty cool concept for a game

>>385106007
keep in mind that this exploit was found by security researchers and patched by valve before it was made public:
https://oneupsecurity.com/research/remote-code-execution-in-source-games

it's possible that "hackers" had been using it for some time but unlikely that no one would have noticed up until now

>>385104935

retards like you must be why they removed the server browser from the main menu

>zero day located by a security company and sold to developer, white hat no matter how you slice it
you realize this shit happens all the time to every internet-utilizing business, right? how do you think these security companies stay in business? only reason this had an article written about it is because its funny that the trigger is getting fragged in an online game

>>385104935

I don't expect a casual like you to understand.

>Defend this Valvefuccbois

Literally nobody is defending Valve anymore.
They haven't made a game in years.
They can barely even be considered a dev anymore

>>385106342
The server browser is on the main menu

>>385106085
This level of delusion is absolutely insane. Of course not because nobody would have any fucking clue they were compromised let along from a video game.

>>385106608
>hackers may or may not have used an exploit to remotely execute code on people's machines
>no one's identity's been stolen, no one's CC details leaked, no spyware found
>no evidence whatsoever that this has ever happened
>other people are delusional for thinking maybe it never happened
the electronics you used today have hundreds if not thousands of zero-day exploits that white hats haven't discovered yet, some of which ARE in the hands of black hats. by your logic you should just move to that cabin off the grid, so, bye.

>nobody saw command prompt open and tell them they were installing a virus

>>385104935
so does this affect the titanfall games too

Nobodies a fanboy of credit card companies like they are of Valve

>defend this
even if i wanted to fellate gabe until he passed out, why would i defend something that is clearly bad you autistic fuck.
who is this imaginary person that you fuckers have invented, that completely denies any and all fuckups from the video game company he likes? this person doesnt exist. this is shitposting about a type of person that isnt real. do we really need more visual hiv shitting up this cesspool of a board

>>385104935
>t. Overwatch fanboy

Just get over the fact your game is casual garbage and go away

>>385107156
"Defend this" is standard reply bait procedure in /v/. This board moves so fast that people here compete for those precious (You)'s by baiting as many people as possible with their shitty posts.

Nothing new, everybody know that Valve are incompetent hacks.

Reminds me of Arby n the Chief, the storyline where hackers ban the console of whoever they kill.

>>385104935

>If you die your whole PC gets fucked

Damn. Sounds intense.

there are still arbitrary file execution exploits or whatever it's called by changing the directory that sprays download to (valve ""patched"" it but people found workarounds on the first day)

fun fact, every spray you've ever seen in a game, official or custom server regardless, automatically gets download onto your pc in game/vgui/temp/

the exploit involves changing that location to windows startup and dropping whatever the hell they want in there

Now this is extreme hardcore gaming, casuals don't even attempt, its not just your virtual life and k/d on the line, but your entire PC, talk about high stakes gaming.

Now imagine playing against Kim

>>385104935
Another reason besides furry mlp shit why I laugh at any faggot that seriously complains about the lack of community servers in Overwatch.

>>385106069
yiff in hell

It is impossible to create that much C code and keep it secure. Here is a great course about computer security if anyone is actually interested in the topic and knows how to program:
