SECURITY ADVISORY

As typical for simulation software, some input files for this software may result
in massive CPU, memory, or disk usage, or in application crashes, or, in rare cases,
even system crashes, which potentially may affect the availability or security of
your system.
For this reason, additional care should be employed when executing input files from
unknown third persons.
In particular, executing input files containing seemingly garbled content or also
accepting and executing input files via an automated network interface may involve
security risks.
If in doubt, please consult with your IT department or your system administrator
concerning risk mitigation.
