Although the code itself is harmless, dereferencing of invalid pointer leads to Access Violation, which is treated as a hacking attempt. I think, that "Runtime Exception" describes this situation more obviously.

No, AV happened on test 8, which is indeed marked as RE. Test 2 caused "write limit exceeded", which is currently treated as SV (see klenin/cats-main#116).
