However, the story is not that simple. While the specific exploit was debunked, a related real weakness was found and patched in jamovi 0.9.6.0: a module installation vulnerability. Prior to 0.9.6.0, installing a malicious module from an untrusted repository could run arbitrary R code during installation. But that required user consent—not a silent drive-by exploit.
Does that mean jamovi is perfectly secure? No software is. But the real threats in statistical computing lie not in debunked ancient versions, but in complacency about updates, social engineering of module downloads, and the inherent risk of evaluating data with code. Upgrade to the latest jamovi, enable security settings, and treat every data file like any other executable: if you didn’t create it, verify it first. Appendix: How to Test Your Jamovi Security
