Hey, has this been fixed? I'm nervous about using Lemmy on my work computer now.
Instances running 18.2 should be fine, and as far as I understand it (with no dev qualifications to speak of, fwiw), these exploits only affected the local instance - they weren't permeating through other instances viewing the exploits through Activitypub. That's all to say, as long as your instance is running 18.2 or higher (the 18.2-rc's should have in progress patches, as well), I believe you should be fine.
Shit, it doesn't look like lemmy.world (my home instance) is running 18.2 yet, according to the bottom of the window. Is that correct?
Itβs been fixed on Lemmy.world they just disabled custom emojis which fixes the issue
