Just heard some Apex legends pro and steamer have gotten hack into and had cheats install into their PC. If you didn’t know, Apex Legends uses the same anti-cheat system as Enlisted.
Some report suggest that, there is a exploit being used via Easy anti-cheat to install software into someone’s PC
Question for the devs
Is easy anti cheat compromised?
Is it safe to play Enlisted right now?
Do I have to uninstall all game that have easy anti-cheat to be safe?
We have investigated recent reports of a potential RCE issue within Easy Anti-Cheat. At this time - we are confident that there is no RCE vulnerability within EAC being exploited. We will continue to work closely with our partners for any follow up support needed
So: No, EAC is not compromised.
Yes, it’s safe to play Enlisted.
Third question is irrelevant because the first two.
damn, but why cheat? he already has StG44 and Fg42.
Why risk losing all that and more importantly why play like this, where is the fun in camping in a box?
If you want to win that badly just play in a 4stack.
Players like that guy ruin the fun of 19 others.
you are talking about different things. he quoted EAC dev about about remote exploit hack. you are probably talking about EAC actually being effective at its job.
if we are purely talking about chances of someone remote installing cheat through EAC on someones computer vs that streamer actually installing that cheat themselves and doing something he noticed that might get him detected in tournament, i know where i would bet.
I made a thread a few days, i was referring to a RCE, when posting, but i never mentioned it(RCE) due to rules.
But anyway cat out of bag,
RU forum were on to it a few days ago, i believe, and when, what happen to them, and then it happened to me, i wanted to post evidence, but thread removed.
So i made this, and Not 1 Helper, helped
They were saying this DC thing was related to some using RCE to screw games?.
from what i see that had nothing to do with RCE. players from both teams were disconnected. this would sooner be DDoS or just simply servers having issues without anyone there to fix the problem.
btw here is wiki on RCE
also it would sooner be used in more nefarious purposes (like stealing your banking info) than just disconnecting you from server.
Hmm, interesting thank you,
you may be right about dos thing, that seem more in line with that post i mention, i just assume rce was correct term used,
Gl with bank thing, Not rich

someone who can compromise your system through vulnerability in EAC for RCE would need serious knowledge and wouldnt make it widely available for kids to ruin that vulnerability just for a game.
these kind of exploits would be used either for setting up botnet and/or getting all your data from various sites (your accounts/passwords/tokens) or they would sell them on darknet for others to exploit them.
if it is true that there is RCE in EAC then this could be one of the biggest hacks in history cause it could affect hundreds of millions of computers (with almost full access to them).
btw for comparison DDoS is super easy to make. you can easily find out IP of game servers (e.g. from your firewall) and you can rent DDoS attack on that IP.
nobody knows what happened and what is exact vulnerability. anything is possible with some things being more probable than others
some streamers are stupid cause they download stuff from anyone (including at least one of the hacked players form tournament)
RCE is possible, but unlikely
hacked players most probably have compromised computers cause they download stuff from their chat (only 2 or 3 players got hacked instead of whole tournament)
hacker most probably has some kind server level access (server access trough client, compromised dev computer, some server hack, RCE on server)
vulnerability is probably small in scope (no evidence for some mass client breach)
EAC is unlikely to have vulnerability (only happening in apex) and there are loads more games with EAC (e.g. fortnite)
