I agree with this. Anybody who does not want to use the feature can disable it.
 
I might give it a try with my antivirus enabled once I am back home at my 
"play" computer.

Sorry for this abbreviated response sent from my smartphone.
 
I want to reply to George Salnik, asking where is the attachment autopreview. 
Yes, the option is under RMB, but unfortunately, it does not work.

Where is this? I don't see checkbox in the settings - attachment security

And my Bat says that there is no updates. Why don't we need this links when 
version is with auto-update feature? 
 
Please do two-things:
- In settings of updates add checkbox "receive beta-versions"
- Do auto-update for such TB! with this enabled checkbox.
 
Save your and our time!

Is this feature can't be disabled? If can be - I don't see any problem to 
paranoic maniac like you and me.

Hello Stefan,

On Fri, 14 Oct 2022, at 20:32:20 [GMT +0300] (which was 19:32 where I
live) Stefan wrote:

Who at Ritlabs is running automated tests with attachments to check 
converters on buffer-overflows, Use After Free issues and other bugs? 
Any Security Auditing of such new features? If all is done in a so  
called "Sandbox" thet can be evaded.
I am sure that malicious senders are able create broken/special 
attachments causing a severe security hole. 

And in these bad times we are all much more concerned having no 
insecure programs being attacked by chinese, russian services and 
intruders.
