Big Steam security flaw discovered
Russian security researcher Vasily Kravets has found a security vulnerability in the Steam Windows client which could allow malicious developers to infect users' PCs.
Kravets said the exploit allows any program to run with the highest possible rights on the host system, theoretically allowing developers to run malicious software on host computers without any impediment.
