Code execution in a JVM is typically equivalent to code execution on the host where it's running.
Because this vulnerability affects both clients and servers, it sounds like a good way for someone to write a worm that ends up creating a giant botnet by spreading from servers to clients and vice-versa.
- anticrymactic 3y agoWow. How have I not realized this. Imagine something like this on vanilla. The implications would be incredible. From 1 player to the server to every client AND THEN to every other server the clients join and so on. I can imagine that only taking days for a majority takeover. Something like the Samy worn
