Is it just me or is it impossible to find from this source link any _real details_ about the actual RCE?

* This post claims an RCE being exploited and warns people not to play.

* It links to Rockstar forums where people are warning about the game being exploited but provide no details on the attack vector or indicators of compromise.

* It links to a screenshot of a tweet of some random person again warning not to play but doesn't provide any useful detail.

* The _original source_ linked in this post is a tweet with some screenshots of a mod that clearly indicates some game modifications but says nothing about an RCE.

Can anyone point to an authoritative source with real technical details?

It's likely one or a small group of people that have the exploit. Chances are they aren't spraying it en mass so it only happens unexpectedly to a few people here and there, none of which are security experts. The only source that can give these details are Rockstar, maybe once they figure it out, or now that it's out someone else may figure it out as well.

I believe it's likely real, and we'll see more details soon enough.
