@BuZz said in New 4.1.20 RetroPie images for testing:
If this is supposed to be funny - it's not. It just shows a complete lack of understanding of the issue.
I completely understand the issue.
I think that retort just shows a complete lack of understanding of how the webcam "hack" was done. The webcams sent a upnpc command the victims routers to open ports so the victims could access the cameras outside of their home network. The "hackers" sniffed for the open port...found it and logged in with the default password. This is not hard. Raspbian/Retropie do not open ports on the router...although upnpc is installed by default....thats kinda interesting. I wonder how many folks running Rays image have actually opened up thier home networks?
Even if a port was open on the router (most of the time there is one open) it would still need to be directed to the pi for a hack to occur. Steam and many other video games open ports all the time. The comparison to retropie and the security camera incident is not really valid. Your home network is only as secure as the router firewall protecting it and the devices inside opening ports to the outside.
Again....I asked...you said no....its your distro....that's that.
Apologies for ruffling your feathers...I do love retropie and respect the work and consideration that you and others put into it.
I consider the issue closed and will not post again about it.
