What about the vulnerability, when coinciding cases of opening a malicious site and purse at the same time?
Aside from the vulnerable versions, double check the site where you've downloaded your Electrum.
There are couple of fake sites which are almost identical to the original electrum site, excluding the recently
taken-down electrum.com (
not identical but claiming to be legit) which offers malware electrum downloads.
The official site is:
electrum.org - No other alliterations, subdomains or url extensions.
If you want to use Electrum, create a new mnemonic SEED phrase using the application itself, offline/online.
Any pre-generated SEEDs can be compromised during the creation or transfer, its security flaw wasn't brought by electrum.
