Yesterday I just got contacted by a hacker (Or maybe a kid who got hack tools). He found my skype ID from stealing a server's code. I always put my information bottom of each file I write for coderhire users (Which Is I shouldn't do next time). This guy added me and wanted me to code something for him and said that he comes from *A Server name*. After talking to the server owner, I figured out that he was a hacker or something. Then I tried everything and dealt with him to get the methods he steal lua, To just figure out how he does it and a way to secure the servers. First he gave me some lua codes using datastream which didn't work at all. After that he gave me aimware, On the website of aimware It says that It can steal lua codes. He said that he steals using that app, And he also gave me this:

Is there any fix for that? I got his aimware and tried to decompile it using .NET Decompilers, But It Isn't .NET app, It seems to be a C application. I guess that there's some bugs in net/datastream or usermessages libraries.
I'M SERIOUS, HE GOT THE ADDONS, THERE MUST BE SOME GLITCHES IN SOME LIBRARIES OR PROTOCOLS:

Who's responsible for the stolen addons? :(
Is it still safe to code in gmod?
Garry, can you please fix this issue?
Another thread about addons being stolen directly from servers...
Do you have sv_allowupload set to 0?
If it was on a clientside file, he could have gotten it and decoded it just from joining your server.
It's indeed possible to decompress/decode the clientside/shared files, But I don't think If It's possible to get name of addons from them.
It is: [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14265905/share/2014-06/cache.webm[/url]
It is also true that files can be stolen directly from servers when sv_allowdownload is not set to 0.
To my knowledge Aimware can only do the former, which is never going to be made impossible.

Thanks for the heads up, will pass on this to other people having this issue, but there must be some kind of way to get Garry to patch this though. Right now, the whole purpose of CoderHire is rendered useless. "Why buy addons when you can steal them for free?" is what's going through most kids mind now.
