a high-risk warning from the UK’s NHS England Digital.

Huh, I didn't think the NHS would be doing security research like this

This would have been something I would have to had to look into back when I was on windows.

I got hit by a similar exploit for WinRAR, it was a very sneaky XMR miner that took over mg whole system and would push the CPU to the max or mine XMR.

I was only able to get rid of it via safe made and luck (I was able to find a removal tool via a non-english forum, I suspect they dlacoid targeting US and EU).
