CapCom Unity reports that
the
promised September patch for
Street Fighter V is now available for the
Windows edition of the fighting sequel. This adds the new Urien character, new
daily targets, and more. However,
The
Register reports this patch installed a rootkit that compromised PC security
via privilege escalations. They detail how this was an attempt to provide
security against game hacks without requiring being online, but that the way it
was implemented opened PCs up to attack. The good news is that Capcom responded
to the problem,
Tweeting
that they have rolled back the rootkit: "The rollback to the PC version of
SFV prior to the security measure update is now live. The new September content
is included."
