/prog/ Challenge #1872 - Exploit slock

Name: Anonymous 2016-01-28 14:57

slock is a simple X display locker utility.

After invoking slock, the only way to get out of it is to enter your password.

The challenge: find a way to exploit it, so that the you get out of slock without knowing the victim's password.

The source code is less than 400 LOCs.

Good luck.

Lisp adds real bloat, Abstraction Bloat. That is empirically verifiable and measurable.
C preprocessor only exist in compile time constructs and has no effect on performance of the C code that results from using it(zero-overhead).
The only cost of using C preprocessor is time/memory spent in preprocessing stage.
