There have been documented cases of the game engine being abused to negatively effect users through a method called remote code execution (RCE). Vulnerabilities like these can be used to compromise your computer, steal sensitive information, or just ruin your gaming experience by spamming chat or constanly changing maps. These are just some examples of what abuse can take place.
