New cybersecurity threat discovered in the EA Games – Origin Platform


Nettitude discover a critical vulnerability that compromises the security of user devices.
Nettitude announced we have identified a vulnerability affecting the Electronic Arts Origin Windows client. This discovery is a major find for Nettitude as we strive to continually enhance and maintain the security of our clients and the digital world we live in.
“EA Origin is used by millions of gamers around the world” says Chris Oakley, VP of Technical Services for the Americas at Nettitude. “This vulnerability allows threat actors to deploy malware to e.g. compromise banking and payment data, deploy ransomware, and more.”
Nettitude have found that Electronic Arts Origin Windows client has a vulnerability in the way it handles one of its software libraries. It also runs with excessive service permissions.
This combination of flaws allows an attacker to exploit a machine running the Origin Windows client by moving locally from a low privilege user to a user with the highest privileges. Subsequently, an attacker could easily deploy malware locally and even move laterally to other machines in the network for wider compromise.
A full technical analysis for this vulnerability can be found here. That article explains how we identified and exploited the vulnerability. It also provides guidance to developers on avoiding the same class of vulnerability. The vulnerability was discovered by Tom Wilson (@uint_ptr).
Electronic Arts were receptive to our report and, following communications with us, have recently produced an effective patch. As of the latest version, this local privilege escalation vulnerability in Electronic Arts Origin Windows client has been fixed. This vulnerability has been assigned CVE-2020-27708.

1spin4win farewells summer with a bright new release, Lucky Safari Hold and Win
As summer comes to a close, 1spin4win brings a new adventure-themed slot, Lucky Safari Hold and Win, to its extensive collection of 150+ games. The title boasts all the provider’s signature style features — quality mathematics, simple mechanics, engaging graphics, and the timeless appeal of pure gambling. This makes the release a perfect choice for all types of players.
Lucky Safari Hold and Win is a classic 5×3 slot that offers an exciting treasure-hunting journey into the depths of the endless savanna. Traversing 243 sun-drenched ways, players collect winning combinations featuring the grassland’s proud residents — graceful giraffes, swift zebras, wily hyenas, and the kingly lion. Rewards up to x1,300 of the original stake fill every spin with untamed excitement.
The safari takes an even more intense turn when the Hold and Win Bonus takes over the reels. The ultimate quest for savanna riches — the x100 and x1,000 roaring Jackpots — begins when three or more gold Coins land on the reels in a single spin. Players start with three respins and continue the treasure hunt until they either run out of respins or complete the grid.
Olga Bogdanova, the Art Director at 1spin4win, shared, “We create games that appeal to every taste! This time, we’re taking players on a journey through Africa, showcasing its stunning wildlife and vibrant landscapes, all accompanied by the generous Hold and Win mechanic that boosts chances to claim precious rewards in the bonus round.”
Thanks to its colorful, lifelike visuals and engaging, straightforward gameplay, Lucky Safari Hold and Win has everything it takes to become 1spin4win’s most memorable summer release.
