Apps on an out-of-support Electron
Electron, the framework behind apps like Slack, VS Code and Discord, only fixes security flaws in its three newest versions (43, 44 and 45). An app built on an older one carries a browser engine with known, unfixed flaws.
- On a Mac
- Apps on your Mac built with Electron. Only the app’s maker can move it to a supported version; update the app, and if it’s still listed, ask them or use the website instead.
- The fix
- Electron 43.0.0, 44.0.0 and 45.0.0
