Oh God is prism on the list? Or modernith mods?
This is a slow-news-day story and affects neither you nor anyone you care about.
The malware was impersonating Oringo and Taunahi
As usual, these hacks target idiots using cheats and aimbots, downloading them from a fake repository on Github directly, which is no different than downloading an exe. 99.99% of Minecraft mods are fine, so is Prism, so is Modrinth.
Oh that's a relief,thank you ♡ I was really worried
The fact that those people didn't even decompile the JAR files is amazing.
You realize that like 0.1% if the population even knows what that means, much less would bother to do it? We're talking about the best selling video game of all time.
Considering that the ENTIRE Hypixel SkyBlock cheating community warns about these things (and there are websites that tell you if a JAR file may be compromised), it is impressive.
Me who uses these "cheats" (are they still cheats if there's noone getting hurt?) in singleplayer:
0.0
These are skyblock cheats, there's absolutely no use for them in singleplayer
Phew, I'm save then 😅
What on earth would you need a cheat client for singleplayer? You already have full control of the game
Small qulity of live stuff. i.e. "Meteor client" allows me to put fireforks on a hotkey so I don't have to keep them in the hotbar/offhand. I also like that it shows me the trajectory of my arrows or fireballs or that it can automate Totems from the inventory so i can keep my offhand free (again).
Just a lot of small stuff :)
Meteor client is a trusted one (pretty sure it's open source, too.)
The Minecraft runtime?
Probably referring to a tailor made jlink runtime
