Png/JPG exploit without opening the image?
I recently stumbled on multiple cases suggesting there's a JPG/PNG exploit that is able to silently execute malicious code when simply viewing the image. I am looking for some insight as to whether this vulnerability requires the user to open the png or just simply "view" it.

In the above videos, the malicious code executes from just viewing the image inside your browser, not even downloading and opening locally. I mean if this is the case, and I'm interpreting this correctly, then surely at this current state the internet is lost? In basic terms, don't open your browser?
