I have not been following any crypto news POST mtgx and pulling all my crypto to local storage. What did this guy actually do? Did he mismanage funds or literally took money from poeple and stashed it away?

Photoaging is the term and a quick search yields a few studies. Ex: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8802961/ . And anecdotally, I never used sun screen and was exposed to a lot of sunburns in

From those commits, would you say this is RCE vulnerability taking advantage of memory/stack callbacks? Does this mean an attacker may exploit this vulnerability to compromise an entire system?
