AFUG is pleased to announce that we will be having Doug Straw give our November presentation.
Title: Security loopholes in FoxPro executables
Part 1: How to hijack a FoxPro executable for fun and profit.
Part 2: Stopping FoxPro hijackers before they board.
One of Doug's clients has purchased a business application written in VFP. As we all know, off-the-shelf applications usually don't do everything we need, do more than we need, and, occasionally, do things we don't want them to do.
In his presentation he will demonstrate how to get around these annoyances, without decompiling/Re-Foxing the executable, by creating a VFP wrapper application and some carefully designed triggers/stored procedures. During run-time you will be able to:
1. Access all the compiled application’s objects, classes, procedures, and methods.
2. Insert your own objects & code directly into the running application.
3. Manipulate the application’s forms & menus on-the-fly.
4. Intercept and modify data during real-time.
These techniques will also show some security holes you might want to close in your own applications.
NEW LOCATION: Aldo's, Sandy Springs, GA
