Default Apex chaos

Hi guys.

Have you heard about the Apex Legends game chaos ?

Apex Legends is a competitive FPS game, and of course, is populated with a lot of cheaters and crackers.

But things turned really crazy sunday, when two professional players (including the #1 pro player) has been cracked ingame while playing the american tournament live streaming, forced to use insane cheats while playing, and forcing Electronic Arts and the Respawn company to cancel the tournament midgame.

For the moment, it's not really clear what happened, could be a RCE, could be a troyan attack, or maybe a server-side attack.

According to the latest news, it seems to be a troyan attack focused on specific players, but some times ago, a big glitch appeared ingame, and it looked more like a server-side attack, clearly not a troyan thing.

And all of those attack were performed by the same cracker, known as Destroyer 2009.
