Comments

tera races cloudy plainsEn Masse Entertainment has released a statement on the official forums in response to reports about potential in-game chat vulnerability in TERA that circulated on the game’s subreddit and Discord channels earlier today. En Masse acknowledged the security risk and thanked the community for reporting the issue.

“The developers of TERA were immediately made aware of the vulnerability and they are exploring an appropriate course of action with the highest urgency. While they do so, the team at En Masse is continuing to investigate and assist the developers in any way possible.

There are very serious claims floating around of what this vulnerability potentially allows malicious users to do. We are taking these claims very seriously but, as of this time, we have no evidence that the vulnerability is being exploited in these ways or that any player information has been compromised.”

En Masse also reminded players that posting information about exploits, hacks, and third party software is a violation of the forum rules and that any information about the issue should be sent directly to any of the staff members. The servers were promptly brought down for emergency maintenance to disable all chat systems except guild chat. “This is being done as a precautionary measure while En Masse and Bluehole investigate the vulnerability,” said En Masse. Servers are now up and running.
