Beware Of Untitled Goose Save Games

If someone emails you a save for Untitled Goose Game you will want to just delete than, at the very least ignore it until you install the latest patch for the game.  Pulse Security bug-hunter Denis Andzakovic discovered that you can modify a save to execute arbitrary code, such as spyware and other unpleasant payloads.  This seems somehow appropriate for a game which puts you in the role of a horrible goose out to ruin as many people’s days as you can manage; along with your shopping and picnicking. 

Double check your game is up to date, as House House patched the flaw last week according to The Register.

    Cummon man, That goose game save was e-mailed to me from my 86 year old aunt’s hotmail…. I’m SURE it’s safe. If we cant trust random saves e-mailed to us, than THEY have already won.
