●●SolidBig BrainNiche Gem

Triggers Fortnite kicks just by spoofing debugger names in a background browser tab.

Strengths
  • Exposes a naive heuristic where anti-cheats scan all window titles blindly.
  • Simple POC effectively demonstrates the vector without needing actual cheat tools.
  • Invites community PRs to build a crowdsourced list of affected games.
Weaknesses
  • Only tests a handful of tool names; lacks a comprehensive keyword database.
  • Limited to games that kick rather than ban, reducing the severity of the finding.
