Hotfix 1.12 and counting
Earlier this week,Cyberpunk 2077developers CD Projekt Redwarned playersabout a security vulnerability that existed when installing some mods or custom save files after some modders themselves warned CDPR about it. They said they’d get on patching that up right quick and as of today it has been. They’ve put out hotfix 1.12 to make your modding experience safe, or at least safer, again.
It’s quite a short changelog, as presumably CDPR were looking to get this particular issue solved quickly. “This update addresses the vulnerability that could be used as part of remote code execution (including save files),” they say in thepatch notes. They’ve “fixed a buffer overrun issue,” and “removed/replaced non-ASLR DLLs.”

As a refresher on what was going on, CDPR explainedto Eurogamerearlier this week:
With this hotfix out and downloaded it’s at least slightly safer to go back to installing your mods of choice and sharing save files. Probably. Unless something else major comes up.
