Outsourcing Department.

"Hello! Hello, this is Weilan Software Company. What can I do?" The employee on duty in the outsourcing department answered the phone and asked.

"I just downloaded your expedited SQLite input validation error vulnerability. I would like to ask if you sent the wrong code? I feel like there is something wrong." said the other person on the phone.

"Ah?! Please wait a moment, I'm going to check now."

The employee on duty was shocked.

If this is really a mistake and someone discovers it, then their entire department will be deducted money and a lot of performance points will be deducted.

The company severely punishes such mistakes.

But after he checked all the vulnerable software twice, he still found no problems.

There was no miscommunication, especially the SQLite input validation error vulnerability mentioned on the other end of the phone.

That was what he personally sent up this morning, how could it be wrong?

After the inspection, the employees on duty were obviously speechless.

He picked up the phone again and said to the other end: "Hello, I just checked everything and there was nothing wrong. Do you think there is anything wrong?"

The other end of the phone paused for a few seconds before replying: "I think the difficulty of this vulnerability is different from what I imagined."

"ah?!"

The employee on duty rolled his eyes and thought the other party was here to cause trouble, so he replied.

"The bounties for our bugs are all set according to the bounties on regular forums. If you think the difficulty of the bug is too high, or the price is not suitable, you can try it at someone else's house."

After saying this, the employee on duty hung up the phone.

They always receive several such calls a month.

I didn't expect to be hit by him today.

The employee on duty made a sound and reopened a certain TV series.

Lu Xiao looked at the hung up phone and was speechless.

No error?

Is it really this difficult?

He frowned and gradually realized something.

Is it possible...

Is it because my programming level + academic skills are much higher than the difficulty of this vulnerability, so I have this misunderstanding?

do not care.

Since there is no wrong code passed.

Then give it a try.

Lu Xiao thought of this, and his hands began to dance on the keyboard.

The speed was a bit slow at first, but slowly, his hands danced faster and faster.

After only fifteen minutes, he stopped.

Not stuck.

But...

The first expedited vulnerability fix is ​​completed.

Lu Xiao blinked, with some disbelief in his eyes.

nailed it?

An expedited vulnerability worth 50,000 yuan was solved? ?

Fifteen minutes, fifty thousand dollars? !

Is this true?

At this time, a prompt sounded.

[Advanced programming skills, experience value +10, current progress (11/500)]

Eh? !

Lu Xiao was a little confused.

Have your programming skills increased with experience? And gave ten experience points at once?

This is the most I have given since I acquired the skill.

Doesn’t that mean that you can get corresponding experience points by fixing programming vulnerabilities?

Looking at another expedited vulnerability on the desktop, Lu Xiao clicked in again without hesitation.

His hands continued to dance on the keyboard.

ten minutes later.

Lu Xiao stopped again.

Got it done again.

Maybe because I got into the state, this expedited loophole was more difficult than the previous one, but in the end it only took ten minutes to solve it.

The bounty for this vulnerability is... 70,000 yuan.

Lu Xiao held his breath and concentrated, as if waiting for something.

[Advanced programming skills, experience value +12, current progress (23/500)]

I'm coming.

The experience points came to him.

Lu Xiao smiled.

really.

As long as the programming loopholes are repaired, corresponding experience points will be given.

The experience value should depend on the difficulty of the vulnerability.

Lu Xiao looked at the time and saw that there was still a full hour left for lunch break.

Other departments were not at work, so even if I sent the solution to the vulnerability, it would not be reviewed until work hours.

In this case.

Lu Xiao dragged the mouse on the computer to the screen and clicked a dozen times.

Then he downloaded all the remaining thirteen vulnerabilities in the outsourcing department.

an hour? !

enough.

Lu Xiao casually opened a loophole, and without even looking at it, his hands were already dancing on the keyboard.

With his current programming level, it is really not difficult to fix these.

As vulnerabilities are fixed one by one.

The system prompts also sounded one after another.

[Advanced programming skills, experience value +9, current progress (32/500)]

[Advanced programming skills, experience value +7, current progress (39/500)]

[Advanced programming skills, experience value +8, current progress (47/500)]

Experience points for advanced programming skills skyrocket.

Although it now requires 500 experience points to upgrade again, Lu Xiao, who has found a quick method, is not worried at all.

Although my company only has a dozen outsourcing loopholes, what about other companies?

You know, there are too many software companies like them.

He doesn't have to worry about finding the bounty loophole on his own.

In this way, you can quickly earn experience points and make money.

It was almost like a dream.

When the lunch break was over, Lu Xiao typed the last few keys.

All bugs have been resolved.

[Advanced programming skills, current progress (127/500)]

Looking at what he had gained in one afternoon, Lu Xiao was still satisfied.

The main reason is that other vulnerabilities uploaded by the company are too simple, and only after the repairs are completed, so little experience points are given.

If there are a few difficult programming vulnerabilities, the experience points must be considerable.

After Lu Xiao relaxed, he found that his hands were constantly shaking.

This is not caused by excitement, but numbness.

The nerves in both hands are numb.

When the Xueba skills were added, he didn't feel it yet.

But when that state disappeared, he felt as if his ten fingers were cramping, and it became difficult to even make a fist.

My own physique.

Still needs to be strengthened.

"Brother Lu, it turns out you are in the office. I sent you a message but I didn't reply. I thought you were asleep somewhere."

Zhang Hongxu and several colleagues walked in.

When Lu Xiao heard this, he looked at his phone. Sure enough, there were several unread messages. He was so focused on work that he didn't notice it.

"I was just busy and didn't pay attention." Lu Xiao explained.

"What are you doing during your break? Let me see...Eh!? These seem to be those programming loopholes in the outsourcing department, right? Brother Lu, why did you download these? Do you really want to fix them?" Zhang Hongxu asked in surprise.

This also attracted the attention of two colleagues passing by.

They caught a glimpse of several files on Lu Xiao's computer desktop and couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, Lu Xiao, do you know how to program?"

"However, these loopholes cannot be solved by just a little bit of programming. The last time I came to a professional studio, it took half a month to fix any of them. We laughed to death."

"That's right, Lu Xiao, don't think too much about it. We have to release the company's recent publicity plan this week, so you should hurry up."

The two colleagues returned to their workstations while chatting and laughing, not paying any attention to the programming vulnerability.

"Tch, look, what makes them proud is that the company is more advanced than ours. The salary is not much higher than ours." Zhang Hongxu muttered.

"Ignore them, work, work." Lu Xiao really ignored those words.

It was finally time to go to work, and it was time for him to do his ‘business’.
