## Security considerations
Quake II was released in 1997 into a world where security didn't matter.
The most important thing when connecting to random servers is: **Quake
II allows the server to do anything on the client!** The server may
execute any console command, it may overwrite any cvar and given the
rather fragile state of the command parsers chances are high that there
are remote code execution vulnerabilities. Only connect to trustworthy
servers!
