The headline on HN is different: "Obsidian plugin was abused to deploy a remote access trojan". It's not a plugin that was abused, but the ability for shared vaults to contain plugins.

Any plugin could be modified by the attacker if the user trusts the attacker and accepts 1. the vault, 2. the shared plugins, 3. disables restricted mode.
