Ultimate crash code!!!

[KG_is_back]

I have found a way to ultimately crashing schematic.
Following code will instantly crash application once it is activated. It is due to a fact that memory address [0] is reserved as a special value for "no address defined". If you try to load form that space schematic instantly crashes.

Code: Select all

streamout out;
mov eax,0;
fld [eax];
fstp out[0]

When you use it in poly section the code is executed when voice is created. You can therefore create a code that crashes the application on order. It might be useful for a "prank" VST that crashes a daw once you hit a button. Or even better for registration protection in your plugins and apps that will ultimately prevent user form using certain features of the program unless registered.

Good one.

Until they fix it in FS.

that's the cool thing about it - it is unfixable. The code would have to check the address every time before fld [eax]; gets executed - it would have to automatically add lines to your assembly code which is generally a very bad idea in the first place (it would kill the point of assembler prmitive, as it would "unoptimize" your every schematic). It works in C++ and every programing language too - ULTIMATE CODE-CRASH!!!

A little fun improvement xD
