  • From what I’ve read, no. It’s an issue with some mods using insecure networking code, letting the malicious party to inject payloads to the server or clients.

    From the blog post:

    The bug is a well known issue with deserialization using ObjectInputStream. The mods affected used OIS for networking code, and this allowed packets with malicious serialization to be sent. This allows anything to be run on the server, which then can be used on the server to do the same thing to all clients, therefore infecting all clients with the server in reverse.

    Take my conclusions with a grain of salt, I’m no expert so I might be wrong.



  • Since I’ve started automating stuff I’ve got myself an Acurite wireless fridge and freezer thermometer (initially found out about it on Reddit, before it all went to shit and all). It both has a nice magnetic display and it transmits in 433MHz band, so a SDR dongle plugged into my Home Assistant machine can receive the temp readouts. So far it didn’t prevent any disasters, but at least I know how hot it needs to get for the fridge to start having trouble keeping cool.
