Minecraft's Deadliest Hack

[@y337]

1:00 JavaScript is a completely different programming language from Java. JavaScript doesn’t use Log4j, Java does. (JavaScript was uninvolved in this vulnerability, JavaScript uses log4js)

This exploit was so crazy, every company who got hit was terrified of the news getting out about it because of consumer confidence so only released information after it. Every friend I have who works in IT was going berserk back then.

I work in IT but was months behind on comms at the time and I don't watch the news or whatever it is people use to learn about recent things. So the CEO asked me about log4j expecting me to have read something or at least heard of it. I promise I don't aim to disappoint, it just happens naturally.

I remember hearing people using the exploit to fix the exploit. Like, it'd run code that fixed the issue and sent a message saying "Hey, you were hit by the LOG4J exploit. We have used this to fix it on your computer, be careful out there." or something like that.
