‘This could brick your PC, allow others to use your login information, or run programmes in the background,’ says the warning.

They recommended the Blue Sentinel mod to anyone interested in playing the game online. Saying that it “will protect from malicious cheats, flag players who use them.

As well as allowing you to kick them from your world.'” At first, it wasn’t able to protect against the exploit, but that’s all changed now.

Explitation

A stream has been used to demonstrate the dangers of this exploit by its discoverer. For this reason, they’ve made contact with Bandai Namco in an attempt.

For preventing any major damage from occurring. Please avoid playing online Dark Souls 3 until this issue has been resolved.

It’s been speculated that if Elden Ring, from FromSoftware, uses the same netcode. As Dark Souls 3, this exploit could affect the upcoming game. Even if this isn’t confirmed, it’s a scary thought none the less.
