Let's assume that there are 2 (or more) different software and all the functions in all the software are secure and these software are interacting with each other. Then how can they be hacked? Can someone give an example. I don't agree with theoretical assumptions. Someone also mentioned that secure functions having limits on arguments can result in DoS. In my opinion, DoS is better than getting hacked. But still, the main point is that can someone give an example of how a software made up of all secure functions be hacked? I request for an example (not theoretical statements). Or, some example that happened in the past in the real world? I will analyze that.
Theoretical assumption: people who think they know how to write secure functions never discover they were wrong and their functions were buggy and insecure. :) :) -- Eli Schwartz
