Activision has temporarily removed the PC version of Call of Duty: WWII from the Microsoft Store and Xbox Game Pass following multiple reports of a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability being exploited by hackers. This security flaw allowed attackers to hijack players' computers during live multiplayer matches, resulting in disruptive actions such as unexpected notepad pop-ups, forced PC shutdowns, and changes to desktop wallpapers. The issue appears to stem from an outdated and insecure version of the game being distributed through the Microsoft Store. Activision took the game offline over the weekend to address the threat and prevent further incidents while working on a patch to fix the vulnerability. The removal highlights ongoing concerns about the security and version management of PC games available on subscription services like Xbox Game Pass.
