Threat actors can exploit a security vulnerability in the Rust standard library to target Windows systems in command injection attacks.

    This isn’t Rust specific. It’s really difficult to securely start a command in Windows. I highly recommend to read https://flatt.tech/research/posts/batbadbut-you-cant-securely-execute-commands-on-windows/.

      I’m honestly surprised windows can even exist at this point.

      It’s mind-boggling to me that people would dedicate their lives to learning that system when it’s such a shoddy piece of crap.

      It’s amazing what a motivator money can be.
