You can pass long (>100 byte) parameter strings to both authorized and unauthorized programs. However, the system will fail the load if you attempt to pass a long (>100 byte) parm string to an authorized program that does not have the LONGPARM binder attribute set. That prevents an authorized program from being "fooled" into overlaying something important.
