⚠ A critical vulnerability in the Unity Runtime, introduced in engine version 2017.01, can allow attackers to pass crafted startup parameters that cause games to load arbitrary native libraries on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android. Exploitation may execute malicious code or expose device data, and the risk depends on game and OS settings.
