Flash Exploit Shows the Dark Side of Web 2.0
- pmjordan 18y agoThe real beef here is: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1189 http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1189 and the update http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1198 http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1198 The submitted article is just a "we're doomed" post. What I find bizarre about some of these exploits is the amount of effort these people go to in order to steal World of Warcraft passwords. I mean, seriously. Wouldn't you think they'd go after something a little more valuable? "I risked being hunted down by Interpol, but the level 70 paladin was totally worth it". EDIT: I'm aware that they're probably hijacking accounts so they can run bots/goldfarmers on those accounts without paying for them. (or having their credit cards blacklisted) That doesn't really make it any less bizarre or amazing to me.
