Only if you consider security-through-obscurity to be REAL(tm) security. <steven.sporenat_private> on 04/05/2002 05:17:19 AM To: vuln-devat_private cc: Subject: JAVA more insecure than true compiled code? Hi, I was wondering what people's thoughts are regarding the security of code written in JAVA, I recently reverse engineered a product with a freely available JAVA decoder and found that it produced code with variable names imports etc, making it very easy to find out how it hung together. Could this be construed as a security flaw with JAVA? Thoughts comments are appreciated.
