Technical Analysis
At the very least I’d debate the legitimacy of this exploit given reports like https://twitter.com/albinowax/status/1263068436298633216 and https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-12440 which suggest this CVE was withdrawn due to it not actually being a valid bug. I’m not sure why this was exploited in the wild as well as I see no evidence of this having been the case minus a light PoC whose validity is disputed (again probably also why this CVE was later revoked as not a security vulnerability).
