Hackers Remotely Took Control of an Apex Legends Player’s Inputs

Apex Legends is affected by an active input-hijacking vulnerability that enables attackers to remotely manipulate players' in-game controls without remote code execution. Respawn Entertainment has confirmed exploitation in the wild, is investigating the root cause, and is working on a patch while advising players to enable two-factor authentication, change passwords if compromised, and avoid ranked matches until remediation.
