SECURITY CONCERN-unkown player joining private games?

[fudgel]

Hey i just wanted to let peeps know me and some friends had a random person with no name show up in our game. He spawned and stood still on the helipad staring off into the distance until we closed the server. Be careful if you see something like this happening to you. I don't know the extent of the security flaw this game has, but some malicious actor seems to be actively figuring it out.

By any chance did your friends on your private group left the instance at any moment?

No we were all baffled, those of us who were dead were all seeing this guy. One of us saw him spawn in and look around too before he stopped moving. I would speculate he did this to do something alt-tabbed.

More likely that it was a dead player reviving as an enemy.

It's not a security concern. I also joined a "supposedly" private game with three other folk that were all steam friends.

I've seen that bug before, it's not an unknown player. Just a weird bug with respawns iirc.
