BFV server side security vulnerability.
Battlefield V has a server side security vulnerability. A certain BF5 "hacker" that considers themselves a "pro" has been making Battlefield V unplayable night after night for hours at a time for over a month now with a number of cheats including the recent BFV.ROBOT.REDEPLOY. Moreover, this cheater is also using something that causes players (including spectators) clients to crash to desktop. It appears that the cheat is sending a message to the server which in turn is relaying a poison message to players desktops causing them to crash. It's fair to say that such a vulnerability could be used in ways more malicious than simply crashing the client to desktop. This problem needs to be addressed.
