tl;dr: Summary not available
HN Discussion:
  • ↑Offer technical configuration fixes in Sonarr/qbit to auto-blacklist executable downloads
  • ~Recommend joining private trackers or following setup guides to avoid these issues
  • ↑Provide context on the broader attack campaign affecting many torrents, not just the author's case
  • ↑Blame Microsoft's hidden file extensions default for enabling this kind of malware deception
  • •Speculate on the malware's capabilities and future AI-driven exploit risks
