Anarchy Online and Age of Conan Vulnerabilities Fixed

dachshund writes "The Baltimore Sun reports that security firm Independent Security Evaluators has disclosed vulnerabilities in the popular MMORPGs Age of Conan and Anarchy Online. The flaws (which have since been patched) allowed a malicious user to read files from and take control of another player's computer. The full details of the attack are available, including a video (hi-res MOV) showing how the targeted player's client can be crashed, and how an attacker can save and run scripts on the victim's computer."

For AoC's sake

For AoC's sake, they shouldnt have patched the vulnerability. It would have made the game better. Can't speak for anarchy, never played.
