But while this midlevel language has its weaknesses, writing safe C code is still possible—it just requires extra vigilance on the part of the developer. In this course, instructor Dan Gookin explains how to identify and code around weaknesses in the C programming language to write more secure programs. Many exploits are known regarding C code; this course reviews each one, explaining the vulnerabilities and how to deal with them. Major areas covered include undefined behavior, avoiding awkward constructions, validating input, managing strings, and working with pointers. Topics include: 01. The weaknesses of the C language 02. Using an assignment as a condition 03. Avoiding putchar() in a while loop 04. Confirming when EOF has been read 05. Authenticating numeric input 06. Filtering string input 07. Avoiding bad string assignment 08. Storing passwords and codes 09. Clearing data after use 10. Issues with pointers Our members see more. Join us! ------------- Our members see more. Join us!
