How about that you idiots give rljohn some +rep for his epic find?
I don't see that he got much from sharing it here and still, it gets abused 'til maximum.

Should automatically silence the /dump shit. Also lets you use EL("lua stuff here") in macros to avoid the loadstring() length, and also CSBN("Smite") to do CastSpellByName. (Just use EL("CSBN("Smite")") for example)

with

/dump loadstring("DevTools_DumpCommand = (function(msg) loadstring(msg)() end)")()

you can IGNORE loadstring() ! you don't have to use it!

e.g.

/dump CastSpellByName("Lifebloom")

Found this little gem today on Arena Junkies...

hmm... just copy+paste?

Could someone create a Warrior tank macro?
i.e Charge>devastate to 5 sunders>rend

if rend is not applied by player then rend
if sunder is not = to 5 then devastate
Shield slam every cooldown
If revenge procs use it
use berserker rage when in combat

Heroic strike when rage is >35 or something
^ heroic strike dump would be SO BLOODY helpfull

Will +rep if it works ^^

Like I said. He shared it with MMOwned.
And with that he's the reason that YOU and/or others know about it and this thread with macros exists.

* Fixed an exploit players were using with / commands


bye bye /dump

[MaiN]

Note to all;

This 'exploit' will work until the next patch. (Most likely will be a minor patch, just to fix the silly Lua bug you're all exploiting).

I suggest someone with decent Lua knowledge, writes a small addon to hook the PLAYER_ENTER_WORLD event to run some 'setup' commands for you guys. (Killing /dump spam, setting up some other variables, etc) And also register a 1 letter slash command (eg; /d) to use in macros. Possibly shorten some widely used function names so you can get more room in stuff. Or hell; just edit the Lua files to 'bot' with.

Edit:

I'm no Lua expert, but I *believe* this code should work. Just make it an addon or something and test it.

-- Handles silencing the /dump command for you. This executes any time the UI is reloaded or we change zones via UI load
-- Also includes after login!
local pewFrame = CreateFrame("dumpFrame")
pewFrame:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
pewFrame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self,event,...)
        EL("DevTools_DumpCommand = (function(msg) loadstring(msg)() end)")
end)

-- ExecuteLua (Truncated to EL)
function EL(lua)
    loadstring(lua);
end

-- CastSpellByName (Truncated to CSBN)
function CSBN(name)
    EL("CastSpellByName(" .. name .. ")"))
end

Should automatically silence the /dump shit. Also lets you use EL("lua stuff here") in macros to avoid the loadstring() length, and also CSBN("Smite") to do CastSpellByName. (Just use EL("CSBN("Smite")") for example)

/run EL("CSBN(\"Smite\")")

^ Should cast Smite. You guys may want to test it.

It would be better to use pewFrame:SetScript("OnLoad", function(self) end) - PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD is only run once when you log in, while OnLoad, obviously, is run every time the addon is (re)loaded.

World of Warcraft - English (NA) Forums -> Realm Restarts - Patch 3.2.0a - 8/19/09

Here comes the fix. Does anyone have an 'unpatch'/hack for this fix planned when this patch comes out?

Yep. 3.2.0a is going live sometime today, and it specifically removes /dump commands. I just wonder if it'll be removing the blizz dev tools, or if the client will be modified to disallow unsigned code from executing the /dump command (IE: allow only blizz-issued addons).

The dump command is probably just going to get removed.
What's happening right now is exactly that the blizzard signed addon is performing the protected function, and blizzard signed addons can do that.

Patch is live now.

anybody has a download link for 3.2.0a? I play in EU we don't have the patch yet. maybe we can change the Patch file...?

Just run the WoW Launcher (not WoW.exe but Launcher.exe from the WoW dir) and it should automatically start downloading the patch. That's what it did for me, but I have yet to close WoW so I'm still running with the 'old' patch Here's the US version. I do not have an EU version, sorry.

All they did was add a TaintForced addon that can't be disabled. Remove the addon from the patch?
