Re: KeePass version 2.12 <= Insecure DLL Hijacking Vulnerability (dwmapi.dll)

I can't take THAT seriously. At least not all of it.

The part that interested me most:


 4. Should I find such vulnerability in many applications as I can?

 You should not. It's just a waste of time and your energy. Focus on most popular application types/classes.


If, say, DWM.dll is exploitable, why not point *that* out rather than
point out the many applications that are using it (wrongly)?



Oh, and the "report". For obvious reasons, I cannot include the full
report. If I missed passing any detail, just ask and I'll fix right
away.

Hi Christian

The reason I use "Clean" doesn't mean (or I'm not accusing) your
Windows is infected.
It's better to test DLL Hijacking in Clean Copy of Windows without any
prior applications messup.

Please take a look at

We thank ACROS Security for bringing life to this issue.
We'll take social responsibility as a security community to stop this
issue as much as we could.
