Genie Overflow
Classic integer underflow exploit in the wild! The programmer found a loophole in the genie's API by requesting a negative number of wishes, causing the counter to wrap around to 4,294,967,295 - the maximum value of an unsigned 32-bit integer. This is basically SQL injection but for magical beings. The genie clearly forgot to validate his inputs. Should've used TypeScript instead of MagicScript.

I Wish For Int Max Wishes
Classic unsigned 8-bit integer overflow hack! The genie says "3 wishes left" but our clever programmer wishes for "0 wishes left" causing the counter to underflow from 0 to 255. It's the digital equivalent of rolling your car's odometer backward, except you're exploiting the genie's primitive variable type implementation instead of committing odometer fraud. Somewhere, a CS professor is using this as an example of why input validation matters.
