Here is a thread on it: https://infosec.exchange/@jtig/112689665815283809

  • So far “there is no evidence to suggest that the product environment or customer data is affected,” the company says on its website.
  • TeamViewer’s internal IT environment is completely independent from its product environment, the firm adds.

Any professional still using team viewer deserves this. I just feel sorry for all the novices that get caught up in this.

That could have been me a few years ago. I was still using teamviewer up until 2020 to connect to my desktop from my laptop. It’s so handy.

Fortunately it was when I started learning about open-source solutions

My professor made me install TeamViewer to our lab computers despite strong pushback from me, and perfectly functioning ssh access through the campus VPN. I can’t wait to send this to him.
