Probably: Support for Mantle (you can find a string 'RENDERSYSTEMDLLMANTLE' in engine2.dll ) Support for VR. If you've not registered (opens in new tab) for Steam Guard protection, this might be an excellent time to rectify that. It will be updated whenever I find something new Generic Features: 64-Bit Support. Hi there Thanks for checking out RES on GitHub. For general documentation, visit the Reddit Enhancement Suite Wiki. Earlier this year the company announced (opens in new tab) Steam Guard, a service intended to offer users an added level of protection against potential breaches. Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) is a suite of modules that enhances your Reddit browsing experience. Valve has made it through the hack-heavy 2011 so far largely unharmed, even as competitors such as Bethesda (opens in new tab), Nintendo, Codemasters, Epic Games (opens in new tab), and of course Sony saw high-profile intrusions call their security into question. Fkn0wned's forum users are downplaying the attack, suggesting the work of a lone nut rather than any organized conspiracy.
However, when the forum comes back online, it would be sensible to change your password and check what information you're sharing, just in case. Thankfully, there's no evidence that users' Steam accounts have been hacked just yet. Please use a unique User-Agent string and take care to abide by our API rules. To learn more about reddit's API, check out our automated API documentation and the API wiki page. If an attacker is able to pull it off, all of your data is potentially at risk.Steam forum users shouldn't be too worried, as forum details are separate from Steam account or password information (unless you've posted those details, of course, which would have been silly). For notices about reddit API changes and discussion of reddit API client development, subscribe to the /r/redditdev and /r/changelog subreddits. So, even if RCE hasn't been actively confirmed, the fact that it's even a possibility in the present state of the game means that it's best avoided. This was a piece of ransomware that encrypted all files on victim's PCs, demanding a substantial payment through cryptocurrency. Wannacry was a pretty major example of a cyberattack enabled through RCE last year. 'Underdogs can accomplish anything,' the ad read.
Through this particularly nasty flavor of malware, an attacker can gain full control of your PC, and execute any code without your permission. Reddit bought a five-second Super Bowl ad that contained a shout-out to the users involved in the GameStop stocks saga. Still, the risk of RCE in the first place is a pretty substantial threat. And further that "it is unlikely but not impossible that security flaws such as RCE (Remote Code Execution) exist".
In fact, in that Reddit thread we mentioned earlier, mod Demoman clarifies that the source code is "an old version and was initially leaked about a year or two ago". We have to reiterate that reports of Remote Code Execution in Team Fortress 2 and other Valve games have been unconfirmed.
Until then, maybe it's time to check out one of the best PC games just to play it safe for now.
We're going to be doing some further investigation on our end, as well, and will update as soon as we get any more information. Otherwise, please choose an option below for. It had elements of a systematic review but fell short of claiming to be as comprehensive (Grant & Booth, 2009).Scoping of literature was done by searching the words ‘Reddit’ and ‘subreddit’ on Web of Science and Scopus databases between May and July 2019. If you need to contact us on, please reach out via modmail.
But, because this is potentially a danger to your data security, our advice would be to avoid playing until the problem has been properly addressed by Valve. If you have a Reddit account and want to report a content policy violation, please use our report form if you don’t have a Reddit account, you can use the form below. Until Valve comes out and makes a statement or updates the game in some way, this is unconfirmed.
We are also hearing unconfirmed reports that all current multiplayer Source-based games may be affected, including Garry's Mod. That post does state that "If you aren't playing on any multiplayer servers you are not at risk" – but it may be best to avoid the affected games entirely. The community has taken the lead with this issue, with a post on the TF2 subreddit warning users away (opens in new tab) from playing TF2 or CS:GO until the problem is patched out.
