Since a lot of the time I see many people using Expression 2 as a means to torment/aggro other players, I think it's high time that it was made strictly a VIP tool only.

What appears to have happened is that a guy on the server has tricked Roy into spawning a dupe or an E2 which secretly gave them access to Roy's admin commands.


^ This.

Also, this isn't first time the server's been fuxxed over because of a malicious E2 script. Is it?

Those few fucktards forced the server to terminate.

It wasn't a malicious E2 script. It was an Exploit. I wrote that before I had received the full picture and was making assumptions.

Even if E2 was disabled for normal players, admins would still have it so even if it was a malicious E2 script, disabling it for normal players would not have prevented it. They rely on being spawned unknowingly by admins.

99% of the E2 scripts I see are fine. Only 1% are debatable (like BoS), I have only ever seen a truly malicious E2 once. Disabling them because of the 1% is ridiculous.

It happens. Its a sad fact of computing. Nothing is 100% safe and secure. When it happens all you can do is learn from it, patch the vulnerability and move on. No point making knee-jerk reactions like disabling E2 entirely.

I don't know what to patch to prevent this, got any ideas?

It wasn't an E2 so no go disabling E2. Its very useful.

Its a vulnerability in Gmod. We have to wait for Garry to fix it.

How do you know this? Got a link to a Facepunch thread or something?

No, but I can tell.

From the events that happened, I can rule out a malicious E2 script. The only logical explanation from what I can gather is that there is a vulnerability that is currently unpatched. If you can look at the logs of when it happened, you should send them to Garry and say there is possibly a vulnerability there.

Which events are you speaking of (just to clarify)?
When did it happen. What should I look for in the logs? What logs? Console or ULX logs?
