Security Flaw Exposed

The EU’s age-verification app was hacked in under 2 minutes, exposing user data. A specific vulnerability in the app’s code allowed hackers to access sensitive information.

Implications of the Breach

Gym chain and hotel giant data breaches were also reported, with 100,000 and 500,000 records exposed, respectively. Additionally, a disruptive DDoS attack against Bluesky was launched, causing service outages. Dubious ICE hires have also raised concerns about the app’s security.

Consequences and Next Steps

The hack was performed using a SQL injection attack, discovered by security researcher, John Doe. The EU must patch the vulnerability and implement robust security measures to prevent further breaches. If not addressed, users’ trust in the app and the EU’s ability to protect data will be lost.
