Doed C# can be used for hacking as like c did using win32 API and all? - mr.cracker - Apr 20, 2016

Does c# can be used for hacking?
Will it help to write malwares, rootkits and DLL hooking?

Can we use c# to do anything like people did using c and c++ ?

Yes you can use C# for same purposes as C/C++. And also C# is easier to learn but it requires .NET framework and C/C++ doesn't.

When you'll hook, you'll have to hook .NET as well which is a joke

I didn't understand. Can you please explain a little more?
Are you saying it is not possible using C#?

It's possible, just horrible. Whenever you'll inject code into a process and you'll be interested in using initialized objects and methods out of C#, you'll have to include the entire framework your language works with. This is not always feasible. Makes injections awful, bloated, detected. While in C/++ the DLLs are already used as part of the engine (usually) or you can use localized functions/visualized functions as part of a virtual method table.

and this is ignoring object linking of which the MSIL and CLI are not compatible at all with the C/++ linker, symbol table and assembly
but again talking about memory / DLL / lib injection / memory corruption and shellcoding
passively or externally slurping around processes can be done with C#, ReadProcessMemory() etc like here http://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=298510
but it's just shit
tldr learn C/++

Thanks. Can you please have a look into this:

I will not be able to give a good answer
