The second Underhanded C contest just opened today, and will run until
July 4th. The Prize is a ThinkGeek gift certificate.
The object is to write deceptive C code, code that does something
malicious but looks innocent and simple enough to pass a cursory
examination of the source.
Last year's contest was to write an image processing routine that
covertly embedds fingerprints in the images it creates. This year's
challenge is to write C code that runs fine on one OS but mysteriously
slowly on a competing OS.
