Dark mixed with Crypto Coins? like Magi?

The Spreadcoin dev is reviewing the Darkcoin code and just posted this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9839488
DarkCoin wallet checks the following things for each new block:
1) There is a payment to master node.
2) There is a payment with the same amount as a payment to master node should be (30%).
But there is no check that this is the same payment. This means that if you generate a block you can pay 0.0000001 DRK to masternode and pay 30% and (70% - 0.0000001 DRK) to yourself as separate coinbase outputs. Such blocks should be accepted by DarkCoin network but I haven't tested it on testnet so I can't be 100% sure.
I don't want any vulnerabilities out the wild so thought I'd check here. This is what happens when "Enforcement" is off, right? Or is this a separate issue and potential vulnerability?
Mr.spread,what's status of masternode and darksend developmnet?
It is far from ready yet but I think I found a potential vulnerability in DarkCoin which allows miners (actually pools) to not pay part of the block reward to masternodes.DarkCoin wallet checks the following things for each new block:

Awesome, thanks. The Spreadcoin dev will contact you privately from now on if he finds anymore vulnerabilities.

"When a team of seven developers launched Darkcoin in April 2014, it didn’t turn many heads."
I wanted to leave a comment but hell, they want to take over my accounts practically! No way!
it is AMAZING how wrong they can get their facts !
maybe we have to send them a seperate page from now (+ PR) with all the facts spilled out one more time
very frustrating but still good press

This was already confirmed not to be true by Darkcoin developer UdjinM6 yesterday. It is of very bad taste for vertcoin to post something like that on their official blog without verifying a rumor. Check this below.

did a check for the last 50K blocks

~2% for Darkcoin
EDIT: for anyone interested, here is fixed code (using correct port/library)

Don't rent these farms, 100 Gh/s and 70 Gh/s x11, they look fake.
https://www.miningrigrentals.com/rigs/13743/
https://www.miningrigrentals.com/rigs/13751/
I can't find any x11 coins where these are parked so they are most likely fake, still I'm sure someone is going to lose BTC on these

Just to confirm that I am currently renting one of these farms (so nobody else has too
) and I think I know who it is.Steer clear. You'll get 5Ghs for a few minutes and then 30,000 invalid shares in a few seconds getting you booted from the pool you are using.
They aren't responding to comms either. I have good contacts with the miningrigrentals team and I have a feeling that these rigs have been banned by them before.
So funny dude, you were the first person I thought of when I saw these farms... I almost put "Stonehedge are you gonna have a play?"...
Then I thought I would use my silence as reverse psychology, it worked...

you guys know you can mine scrypt and a bunch of algos on yaamp and get paid in drk right?
Really? Cool, where can I see that? Can't seem to find that info. It just says

YAAMP is an instant switching mining pool with auto exchange to Bitcoin.
It looks like it only pays out in bitcoin; don't see anything about Dark payouts there...
The only multipool I know of that pays in Darkcoin is xpool (includes SHA-256)...
Are there any other multipools that payout in Dark?
