New Details Emerge: Server Compromise, Not RCE, Behind Apex Legends Hack

The report describes how several players at the Apex Legends ALGS North American Finals experienced in-game hacks (aimbot/wallhack) that appear to stem from compromised player PCs—likely via a Trojan—rather than a game client RCE; investigators identified an inbound connection and an IP tied to a malicious server and attribute activity to a hacker known as Destroyer2009, though the conclusions remain unconfirmed and the situation is under further monitoring.
