    An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted packet to an affected service over the network. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to execute code on the target system. No authentication or user interaction is required..

    A fucking paint program. Why the hell is it attaching to anything on the network?

    And I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.

    I played a guessing game with GLM 5.3- and it sounds like an echo of my statement. Eery.
