    Recently, two security bugs were found in uTorrent in how it sets up its web interface (affecting both uTorrent Web and uTorrent Classic). The full bug report can be found here: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-...detail?id=1524
    More information can be found here: https://torrentfreak.com/bittorrent-...bility-180220/

    uTorrent web
    Basically, this security hole allows an attacker to remotely get access to your uTorrent via the WebUI, and use that for malicious activities, like downloading viruses to your computer. Because of this, I strongly recommend that all users currently using the uTorrent webUI, disable it for the time being. (This applies to both uTorrent web and the WebUI inside 'normal' versions of uTorrent)

    uTorrent Classic
    Even if you have the WebUI disabled, there is another security bug that can be exploited. Among other things, this bug allows for crashing of uTorrent, and stealing of torrents. to prevent this, I strongly recommend that all uTorrent users disable the 'net.discoverable' setting. Some older uTorrent versions might not have this option. If you cannot find it, you might be safe from this bug.

    To disable this setting, simply follow the instructions in the image below:

    After applying the setting, you should restart the client. (File>Exit, then starting it again)

    This post will be updated if that is necessary. If you have any vital information regarding these bugs, please send a StaffPM.
