I mean… You have to explicitly hit “open”, and it requires you to do so? This is like saying email has a vulnerability because it lets* me open files sent there?
I get what they are after, but this is a stretch.
I guess preferably they’d just be saved and/or opened in a text editor, rather than ran on your computer
Starts getting into demarcation land at that point, because the OS defines what files are opened in which program. Just saving makes sense as a compromise though!
Right, but they could define a special behaviour so it doesn’t immediately run a script you click on. It is kinda your fault if you get got by this, but it would be a bit more secure with mitigations in place.
Haha jokes on them, it won’t even let me install their apps on Windows
