    They finally did it. Microsoft has successfully over-engineered a text editor into a threat vector.

    This CVE is an 8.8 severity RCE in Notepad of all things lmao.

    Apparently, the "innovation" of adding markdown support came with the ability of launching unverified protocols that load and execute remote files.

    We have reached a point where the simple act of opening a .md file in a native utility can compromise your system. Is nothing safe anymore? 😭

      @pheonix youth is skipping to old nokia's, to dvd's, to buying vinyl and even to lending in videostores (really!).
      So how do companies keep adding more and more features nobody wants anymore?

            I'm not surprised...

            A simple cat <file> on the command line can also compromise your system. If you're unsure, you should therefore use cat -v <file> when I'm not mistaken.

                                @pheonix That's what you get for using AI in development. What could possibly go wrong?

                                  They finally did it. Microsoft has successfully over-engineered a text editor into a threat vector.

                                  This CVE is an 8.8 severity RCE in Notepad of all things lmao.

                                  Apparently, the "innovation" of adding markdown support came with the ability of launching unverified protocols that load and execute remote files.

                                  We have reached a point where the simple act of opening a .md file in a native utility can compromise your system. Is nothing safe anymore? 😭
