Avoid The Hack! on Nostr: Malicious actors or “hackers” are exploiting discovered and/or disclosed ...

Malicious actors or “hackers” are exploiting discovered and/or disclosed vulnerabilities quicker than ever.

Actors often rely on the lag between vulnerability disclosure (which can be in the patch notes of an update) and users updating to the latest #security patch to exploit vulnerabilities.

Exploits can range from telling your device what to do (code execution or command injection) to crashing the device so it’s unusable (denial of service).
