>>>Unless you work in a completely isolated environment with some magic unicorns that keep your installation safe, your system is very open to vulnerabilities and other nightmares.

>>>KiCad is not some ancient machine control software that cannot be upgraded. It’s general-purpose software designed to be run on internet-connected workstations.
