Hacking, AppSec, and Bug Bounty newsletter
2018-01-05 | 1.2 B UIDAI records sold for $8, RCE bonus from Google Play, and CERT’s Spectre solution update
Friday, January 5
TOP STORY
-
Aadhaar, India's National ID Database (UIDAI) with private information of nearly 1.2 Billion people was reportedly breached (and the data sold “repeatedly” for a whopping $8). Originally reported by Tribune India, Aadhaar claimed it was fake news, but now admits it appears to be an “instance of misuse”. When every admin is a super admin, there’s ripe chance for “misuse”.
