If you use the plugin Torrents Time σε κάποιο πρόγραμμα tourς για να κάνετε streaming βίντεο από torrents trackers όπως το Pirate Bay, καλό θα είναι να γνωρίζετε ότι είναι αρκετά επικίνδυνο.
Developer Andrew Sampson, found out security gaps in the Torrents Time code.
According with Sampson, the plugin seems to be trying to run an entire torrent client in your browser.
Because it is lightly coded, there are security holes in cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) that could allow malicious websites in addition to streaming files, tracking you, and logging your online IP address, as well as your location.
Meanwhile, the plugin seems to use from 50 up to 80 percent of your CPU, which is totally superfluous but also a symptom of bad coding.
