You have to put it through the Prime-95 test, BOINC, etc. The entire buffer is then transformed into ASCII format, encrypted, and finally converted to a string to become the cvf format. Just keep in mind: A CPU-Z validation does not mean your overclock is stable. Each hardware specification is written into the buffer in Unicode format. How was this possible? When the user clicks validate in CPU-Z, a buffer area 8192 bytes in size is created. it just validates it so others can see it, its like proof so people can make sure a cpu-z or gpu-z isn't photoshoped. As long as client-side data is imported to the server without any checks, dangers exist. In the wrong hands, it is theoretically possible to inject malicious code. As you saw early in the post, it was possible to put an HTML link back to this website directly on the CPU-Z page.
Cpu z validation manual#
When I try to validate my E8400 with CPU-Z at 4.95Ghz or a little higher CPU-Z crashes right after when I click the 'save manual validation file' button :( When I try the normal 'submit' button the same thing happens.

While the the writer did point out that CPU-Z has a good feature to validate a clock setting by using simple math, but also showed that CPU-Z can still be faked with an example as it doesn’t do any data integrity check of the validation file submitted by the user:ĭespite the validator’s ability to check for the validity of overclocking speeds, the site does not seem to care about the integrity of the other data. I want to validate my overclock with CPU-Z but when i try to do so CPU-Z just makes my computer crash. The first thing you’ll see once you’ve downloaded and installed CPU-Z is a window asking you to validate your PC. But now personally I had doubts, that doubts have grown much stronger after knowing that CPU-Z validation file can be manipulated and approved.Īccording to the author, the validation information which can be saved locally lets it to export to either.

Cpu z validation series#
Over the series of days, I and many of you guys have been seeing a series of websites putting up CPU-Z screenshot leaks of unreleased processors and showing the overclocking potential (on boot, anyways) of the processor, like Haswell- and even GTX 700 series which claims to have DX12 support, but hack tricks have shown that CPU-Z validation can be hacked and approved by CPU-Z validation.
