Did that and found some in my Arduino IDE (ver 2.12.0), according to this


there is a fix that was implemented.
If I stay up to date am I all good then?
Though it is good to fix it, if you don't have a web server or similar accessablity from the internet you won't be affected. This is a direct access exploit.

Not necessarily. You could import a project that writes something dodgy to your log file and pwns your system.

But the fix is well known and effective

Pretty unlikely. But yes always good to apply patches.
