[QUOTE="Moonhorse, post: 741389, member: 72712"] Theres game called runescape, they have official game client but theres like 20-30k people online throught 3rd party game client, thats open source project in github. You login to game via that client. 1. Is it possible to run malicious code in and infect / 'keylog' peoples account that way? 2. isnt it security issue for company that owns the game? I doubt theres zero people that really can / bother read the code before they run client [/QUOTE]
