Powerplay "Distribute Power Malware" mission in Horizons?

Based on what I've read, the weekly "Distribute Power Malware" mission is an Odyssey-only mission. I do not own Odyssey - only Horizons. How do I complete this mission?
 
I was confirming, rather than relying on my own assumption. Isn't it some type of bug or "misconfiguration" for Frontier to require Odyssey-only missions from Horizon's players?
 
Except for the first set of five, none of the Powerplay missions is required - and a lot of them are not completable, even in Odyssey. I don't think a "Distribute power malware" mission would be part of the first set, those seemed to be manually curated so far.

Actually, it was part of my second set of 5. I didn't realize those weren't required after the first set, or that it was expected that some of them may not be completable. Thanks!
 
If you do not have Odyssey, yes, the game has given you an impossible assignment. They could at least have a different icon to denote that... or not offer an impossible assignment at all. But really after the initial assignments these feel very inefficient to do, merely suggestions of gameplay since the merits awarded from these don't impact the system's control score at all.
 
Impossible weeklies are normal, and have been since release six months ago. At this point, it's safe to assume they won't be fixed. Feel free to send feedback to Frontier on this.

Count yourself lucky you didn't get one of the ones that target the invisible test systems near Sol.
