A non-vulnerability like this is a good example of how easy it is to get press for $important_company + security. Top of hackernews at the moment and fingers crossed there wont be a wave of articles about this in the…
If there is someone to be upset with in this situation its accellion the vendor who backs files.fb.com. Looking at how egregious their security mistakes are they dont appear to take security seriously. This is the same…
