    only applies to Windows (I think)

    Well yeah, its a vulnerability in the windows software. Nothing they said implied otherwise.

    and won’t work without a permissions escalation.

    I dont think thats true, could you explain why that would be? This article mentioned no need for a permissions escalation. In fact it seems that the RCE is automatically run as administrator by the driver process.

      I love how on Lemmy Windows is not immediately assumed to be the default OS, lol.

      Are we all Linux users?
