Hacker says they banned ‘thousands’ of Call of Duty gamers by abusing anti-cheat flaw
The hacker, who goes by Vizor, tells TechCrunch that they exploited a bug in the popular game's anti-cheat software for months.
“I could have done this for years and as long as I target random players and no one famous it would have gone without notice,” said Vizor, who added that it was “funny to abuse the exploit.” “If you know what signature the anti-cheat is looking for, I find a mechanism to get those bytes in your game process and you get banned,” said the person, who asked to remain anonymous. In the period of time Vizor was using the exploit, somevideo game streamers posted on X that they had been banned, and then unbanned, once Activision fixed the bug.
