Title should be changed to "League of Legends to use kernel driver to enforce anti-cheat." I thought the article had something to do with the device null.

- chungy 7y agoYeah, same. In fact the article seems to be talking specifically about a Windows-only game and "/dev/null" in the title doesn't appear to have any relation to the text.
- MuffinFlavored 7y agoDoes this mean the app will need to run as root while the user is playing?
- outworlder 7y agoNo but the cheat software will run in the kernel. Which is > than root. In all likelihood – unless these guys are uncharacteristically careful – it will stay there even when you are not playing and become an attack vector.

- dang 7y agoOk, we've nullified the /dev/null bit in the title above.
