Buffers are also lengthchecked, and pointers dont really have the required scope to be exploited. If there was an exploit for a java program, it would probably exist as a bug in the virtual machine, or in a call to a c/c++ program/library. IIRC, there was something about zlib being exploitable? -- Felix Harris felixat_private I say goodbye and raindrops taste like tears In the pouring rain I stand and die alone
