CS:GO and other source games have had loads of serious vulnerabilities. I've found a few myself just by looking at the leaked source code: https://github.com/perilouswithadollarsign/cstrike15_src The engine code is very old, and CS:GO itself was not developed by valve but by Hidden Path Entertainment initially as a port of CS: Source to consoles and they didn't really do a great job.

MAX_THREAD_IDS is defined as 128 in a file with a copyright notice of 2005, which was when the very first consumer dual core processors started getting released: https://github.com/perilouswithadollarsign/cstrike15_src/blo... Entirely reasonable that no one in 2005 would even consider the possibility of 128 core processors. I bet nobody reconsidered or even looked at that code ever since, until it started breaking because of today's extremely parallel cpus starting to get somewhat affordable for consumers.

In Portal 2 crashes if you have 128 cores, due to 15 year old assumptions
