yes? opening a picture with malware could infect your computer.
It would be a combination attack, so the virus would either target the correct media player or several of em.
here is a older vulnurability with vlc and avi file https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-25801
it is absolutely far less risky than downloading programs that run code, but it’s not without any risk
edit: windows programs also lets files call home. Script Command in windows media player f.ex 🤷
sry, but that’s just straight up wrong. You can hide malware in video files (both mp4 and mkv are great containers!) and you can disguise your virus as a video.
honestly thought OOP meant this whole map as all the occupying states are bad, considering israhell iwns half middle east
ah yes, ukraine bad cus they were invaded by russia? 🤔
oh shit then it makes sense!
Russia is currently ignoring copyright. like. for real, so any breach is currently completely ignored there
I would be a bit sceptical
weird to blame video form lol.
24 years? the brand of the dvdr is unfamilar but lain is from 98 🤔
yes. it doesn’t make any sense to cap neither upload total or upload speed unless they have some sorta data cap
if you don’t have any data caps then it just doesn’t make any sense to cap your uploads.
Just check if your plugins got an update on the github list?
ah yes. whataboutism.
yes it is, not saying it isn’t
I’d guess the real number is cliser to hrnwa which is around 10k
Iranian state tv gave an official death toll of 3117. from aljazeera, famously pro US outlet.
I’m sure I remember that movies were found in dropbox around 2010s as well - it’s sketchy but it exists 🤷 not scary torrent but supersafe download
ohno - you were the meme, I’m sorry it hurt you ;p
haha, oh not to mention lemmy communists: love to defend imperalism, supports capitalistic explitation of foreign labour (as long as its not US explotation), oh and opposes anyone arming themselves in opposition to said imperialism 🤷
eh, internet will always be internet; it sucks but I know I’ll get along far better with a commie than a facist afterall. Faces help so much
no, these things would try to exploit the program that read them.
it’s not a likely attack vector, you need both a malware file, and the right program trying to read it. it might not also be transferrable across different os.
so yes, it needs a media player to attack. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-25801 this one f.ex
