Last weekend the North American finals of the Apex Legends Global Series was abruptly called off after two players suffered mid-match hacks that enabled cheating software. The word is that this was down to a remote code execution (RCE) exploit, a particularly nasty form of intrusion that's such bad news that Easy Anti Cheat (used in Apex) was stung to issue its own rebuttal asserting "there is no RCE vulnerability" in its software.
Easy Anti-Cheat got out of the gate before EA and Respawn, but the Apex developer has finally commented on the incident. Not that it's saying much.
