me and include as much detail as you can. Below I will explain the difference between a bug/error and an exploit.
Firstly, a bug. Dictionary.com defines "bug" as in computer security as:
So for example, a bug might be that a mission on the website is impossible to complete because the page it tells you to go to has an error on it, or doesn't work right, or items from your inventory keep disappearing, or something else. Most of these are pretty minor things.Dictionary.com wrote:An unwanted and unintended property of a program
or piece of hardware, especially one that causes it to
malfunction. E.g. "There's a bug in
the editor: it writes things out backward."
Dictionary.com defines an exploit as:
This generally would mean such things as there being a way to access the admin panel, delete users accounts or modify the files on the website. These are extreme cases, it can include less serious things such as there being a way to gain unlimited Cash or Pokémon. These things must be reported as soon as possible as they are more serious than a bug and must be dealt with straight away. For these matters, DO NOT post in this forum, rather PM me as soon as possible.Dictionary.com wrote:A security hole or an instance of taking advantage
of a security hole.
