Minecraft Mods Can Hack You

Bleeding Pipe and Fracturizer, two different ways that Minecraft Mods can compromise your computer and steal your Minecraft account and other usernames and passwords. Fracturizer works pretty simply, you have a malicious mod developer who creates a virus that replicates and copies itself to other mods. This eventually lead to a big Minecraft mod being infected and infecting others. When a computer is infected, the hacker can take your usernames, passwords, crypto wallet. Bleeding Pipe on the other hand, is vastly different. A development shortcoming that is common on a ton of Minecraft mods lead to a bunch of modded Minecraft having the possibility of being compromised. A malicious attacker could tell a Minecraft server to tell your computer to send your usernames and passwords to the hacker's website. Also for the fun of it I threw in a Minecraft anticheat system that definitely makes me paranoid.
