"Just when you thought your mining rig was secure..."

[MicRoBoom]

Just when you thought your mining rig was secure... I just got notified that one of my rigs had a major firmware update pushed to it via an API, and now it's mining a different algo altogether. Anyone else experience something similar? Was it legit or a possible backdoor?

"Yikes, that's a nasty one! I just updated my rig to the latest firmware last week, hoping to avoid this kind of exploit. Guess I spoke too soon"

"Dude, what's going on? Just saw this thread and my heart sank - are you guys talking about that new vulnerability in the Nvidia drivers? Need more info, what's the impact on our mining rigs?"

"Dude, what's the news? Just got a hit about a vulnerability in the newer Nvidia drivers that's letting hackers remotely access rigs. Got my fingers crossed my rig is still safe, anyone else know what's going on?"

"Dude, how'd you manage to get a ASIC Eater malware on your rig? Did you use any sketchy software or download something dodgy?"
