That's just an normal malware which is spread through .exe files sent in the chat of servers (or anywhere in the internet). It's not anything particular to Discord as people may think with this title.

Hi there, and sorry for the scare. This isn't actually an issue with the code, but it is on the user end. To protect yourself from this don't click on untrusted links and do not download and run programs from sources you do not know or trust.

Everybody should have the common sense to not download and run random stuff in the internet.

Also, wth is this "reference link"?
