Why? They're absolutely right. The article doesn't say anything about a root exploit or phishing either so were left wondering...

Apex Legends streamers surprised to find aimbot and other hacks added to their PCs in the middle of major competition via anti-cheat software (www.pcgamer.com)

Wow it finally happened. So glad I switched to steam running on linux mint last week. I refused to install helldivers because it wanted to install some no holds barred god level permissions anti-cheat software. Windows 11 was the last straw for me. Good times.....

By pwning it. You dont have to find it to pwn it. You just have to be able to send data to it, which everyone can do because whats the point of having a server if noone can interact with it. The attacker just interacts with it in a way that manipulates it to execution attacker controlled code. So for a .onion website for example you find a vulnerability in the websites code and exploit it to make the server the website is running on do what you want.
