Reading the article I’m a bit confused, can someone confirm for me that it only affects windows running with Japanese, Traditional Chinese, or simplified Chinese locales? Not other locales.

I understand that these encodings make it easier but it’s still possible to exploit without.

Thanks for the insight. I’ll make sure to update things on my end asap.
