While reading the Traning Guide for the 70-536 exam written by Tony Northup and friends, I came across the following:
CAUTION - Avoid EventLog objects in partial trust environments
Use of EventLog objects in a partial trust environment can cause serious security holes and should be avoided if at all possible
He basically indicates that because the EventLogPermission is required for a lot of the EventLog usage, this can open a serious security vulnerability. Mischievous code running with this permission granted could, for example, shut down antivirus or spyware detection applications yet make it appear as if it s still running. "The potential is endless".
Is this a serious concern?
