It is common for code which is designed to trigger security bugs in systems to be published with several errors, so that skiddies can't just compile and run.


Which makes me sad. Makes it just as easy for dedicated crackers, makes it harder on busy, overworked sysadmins to check.

All the script-kids need to do is find someone to help them, so I don't really think this helps anyone.
