A managed code rootkit injected into an object-oriented runtime can do many interesting things. For instance, attackers can manipulate object-oriented-based runtimes by influencing the relationships that exist between classes and the associated mechanisms that handle them. Other advantages of object orientation include use of data abstraction, encapsulation, and modularity which eventually lead to the creation of better code. By injecting code into a runtime that was built using object-oriented classes it is possible to perform special attacks that rely on object-oriented behavior, ...
