[Security]PayVault Issues

Postby [GD]AlaaNasro » September 2nd, 2015, 4:50 pm

Hey,
So i made a quick Outfit system,where the main character can change stuff and checkout the items and i used client.payVault.has functions,seems good and works fine,expect,that i tried to hack my game and i can,so i used Cheat Engine and it seems that anyone can easily hack my game and change the name of item to another one and buy it ! so can i switch this system to server side and if so,is there any methods i can use to call it in Action Script 3.0?
Cheers,
Alaa

It's not related to Payvaul, in fact, everyone can hack any game with the good tool.
Never trust the client.

In my game, non-consommables items are always rechecked / re-sync when necessary, from Google Play / AppStore , and from the Payvault system.

If none of theses backend contain the purchased item, then i lock the content like it would be.

Ultimately, if you want to add some difficulty to cheat, you may try to encrypt your user unlocked content, and don't using Payvault at all. Everything is possible.
