I'm sure from what I read online this effects the game mainly but the problem is AVs can only protect you so far. If software itself is vulnerable the risks are higher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,508 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) As the uTube video notes at the very beginning, the recommendation is not to use GTA. It has un-patched vulnerabilities; the worst being a RCE one. Eset IDS will protect you against exploiting of known vulnerabilities. Specifically, those that have been assigned a CVE number. As such, I wouldn't rely on Eset protecting you using default settings against GTA hacking. -EDIT- It appears the RCE vulnerability has been assigned a CVE number: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/gta-online-bug-exploited-to-ban-corrupt-players-accounts/ . However, the uTube poster alluded to more vulnerabilities than just the current publicized RCE one. Edited January 29 by itman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
