Destiny 2 Hotfix 9.7.0.5: Anti-Cheat Backend Update

Security & Anti-Cheat Patch

Bungie has deployed a silent back-end update to kill off the recent exploit where malicious users were spamming players with illegitimate XP and rewards. This fix specifically targets the infrastructure used by cheaters to disrupt sessions without flagging innocent victims.

Detailed Tweaks & Features

  • Exploit Prevention: Backend code now blocks unauthorized reward and XP injections.
  • Account Integrity: Cheaters exploiting the system are being actively banned.

Everything else is just minor background stability improvements. A necessary cleanup to stop the lobby-spamming chaos.
