        They were communicating, and then just stopped 🤷‍♂️. They didn't even notify me they were shipping a patch, I had to bindiff it.

        so they list all network connections and filter out by remote port? is that something people normally do to workaround this sort of vulns?

        I think Edge has localhost loopback disabled by default, but yeah, seems like it's missing

        Is MacOS vulnerable to this attack? Your list of whitelisted executable names all end in ".exe", which is a windows-specific file extension.

        (Perhaps that's just because Tavis chose to diff the Windows binary, and there'll be a macOS update too with different filenames?)
