Malware on the fediverse?
Hey all, I'm fairly new to the Fediverse.
I'm just wondering what is preventing mallard from being shared on Lemmy, K.Bin, etc. via images or other embeds? Is there some file vetting happening under the hood?

Welcome,
There were issues a while back, which were fixed in security patches.

Hopefully you're not using an image reader that's shitty enough to have vulnerabilities like this 🤨
