Players rave and rant about the wonders of kernel level anti cheats, and how games like Valorant barely have any cheaters compared VAC secured Counter Strike...
Yes it requires access to the pc but it’s still a huge vulnerability. Many things can gain access to your pc but lack the permissions to do any damage. In this case simply having genshin impact installed put you at significantly more risk.
To your 2nd edit yes it is to do with it being installed. The user or the attack installing the anticheat is still the anticheat being used to exploit.
There was a security vulnerabilitiy in the genshin impact anti cheat awhile ago.
That’s exactly the sort of source I was asking for
Edit: the driver file was used after gaining access to the pc. So quite an involved attack but still really bad.
Edit 2: so actually it’s nothing to do with having it installed. As the attacker installed it.
