Hi, Riley. It's Mike.

I saw your website and your CVEs. Kudos for the work you've done it's nice to see someone on the other side of the screen who isn't just a bounty hunter but a researcher who genuinely cares about people

Let's be honest. 9.8 isn't the kind of beast you can cure with plantain. I can't give you the technical drawings of this bomb (the CVD embargo is a tough thing, and I'll guard these parts until July like a dragon guards gold). But I can give you a "shield".

Here's the harsh truth: exploits of this caliber are worth millions of dollars on the gray market. They're rarely dumped on the masses in public chats for fun—it's too loud, attracts the attention of analysts, and instantly destroys the vulnerability. They're saved for pinpoint, sniper shots. But if this poison does leak out to the masses before the patch is released, your community needs to be fully prepared.

You've already taken the right first step by disabling autostart, but let's tighten the screws to the bone. Pass this survival plan on to your people:

1. Total quarantine for media (Blackout): disable autoloading - this is the basic.
2. Cutting the WebRTC Wire (The Death of P2P): A Silent Call Is the Perfect No-Click Attack Vector
3. If anxiety is skyrocketing and coordination is necessary, switch to Telegram Web (versions K or A) running in a tightly sandboxed browser (for example, through Firefox containers or incognito mode). Modern browser sandboxes (V8 engine) are a damn tough nut to crack.

Telegram certainly likes to play the guerrilla game and respond "out of scope," but they usually patch such critical core flaws quietly, quickly, and without unnecessary fanfare in minor updates. So the main rule is to obsessively update the client at the first opportunity.

But let's turn on cold cyber mathematics: right now, this vulnerability does not threaten the deadly ones in your community.

Also thanks for the AI written response but

I'm guessing this was the VP9 crash then

I can find the sticker for ya in a bit but I remember there was a certain bug with how the VP9 codec was handled in stickers, which was capable of causing crashes to the Android app for a bit

He blocked me after that lmao

I'd probably just keep auto downloads off for a week or 2 and see if there are any updates

Keep on rocking, my burgers

Be the American the Japanese think you are

It's so fucking cluttered and noisy that I can't even tell wtf I'm looking at. All I know is that because it's in Enigmatic it's probably a fat bitch

I may just be able to look past valve inventing the loot box at this rate

Why are you not sending shit to @spiderkash?
