I have to say that I am rather naive in this respect, and don't have much idea about how to search for vulnerabilities in code (other than grepping for known dodgy functions I suppose and looking for known ways of misusing them). What about an article on that subject? Or does anyone knowledgeable feel like doing a guest article on the subject?
