Description

Does anyone know of unusual behavior lately with windterm? I'm afraid of being infected with ransomware because I noticed that it created a tunnel on my machine and accessed an instance and changed the ssh key on my machine, I passed it on to a friend and the same thing happened, anyone with the same problem? I used it for years but now I'm afraid it could be infected as the source code is not completely open

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named in the report. A maintainer would first need to establish a reproducible case and determine whether the reported tunnel and SSH-key change originate from WindTerm; the issue is resolved only when that investigation has a documented conclusion.
