    in my defense, my team is always trying to be mr. achiever and drop the latest vulnerability. I got a glimpse of this one and got excited since I hadn’t heard of this “new named threat”. when I tried reading further to prepare my draft… the reach and exposure of this vulnerability became clear.

    also, to mitigate this, we’d have to hotpatch layer 8.

      u shouldn’t play the achiever game with your team, it’s an exploitation tactic and it consumes every fiber of your being
