wait wait wait holdup.
you can plug an hdmi device into a computer, and you get ..
...
... autorun.inf functionality?
it installs and runs entirely without user consent?
so we're back to evil usb sticks again that autorun shit, except now ... a malicious... firestick? chromecast? ..
hdmi is the new usb?

Ah, I remember years ago there being some Windows LPE when connecting Razer USB devices. (Driver installation included a GUI-based coinstaller that ran with privileges). I made a raspberry pi script to enumerate known VID/PID combos to see if other devices behaved similar (some did!).
Disturbing to see the same thing happen with HDMI devices. 😬
(Assuming that's what's actually happening here, and not that somebody plugged the LG monitor USB connection in)
