gollark: There are issues I know of in GPS (pretty obvious, hard to exploit, hard to patch), rednet repeaters (not useful to exploit, easy to patch, not too obvious), rednet itself (obvious, easily exploitable, but most people making serious programs are already aware), potatOS (very non-obvious, not a huge issue as accidental RCE still isn't possible, easy to exploit if you know how).
