Copilot di Microsoft ha un problema di sicurezza, ma Microsoft tace

Microsoft non comunica sempre ai clienti tutti i dettagli sulle correzioni di sicurezza rilasciate negli aggiornamenti di sistema

Tom's Hardware

Wenn man auf mehreren Kundensystemen unterwegs ist, dann kann man halt mal alle 6 Wochen einen halben bis Tag einlegen um sich überall einmal anzumelden, Passwort ändern und wieder abmelden. Nur, damit es in Notfall funktioniert.
Da wir mit mehr als zehn Leuten unterwegs sind, gehen da schon mal fast 10 Manntage im Monat drauf. Wenn es reibungslos funktioniert.

"CMF/Nothing's student referral program is not secure, and you can find user data of the referee through its API, including:
- first/last name,
- phone number,
- email,
- address and area

CMF's referral program allows you to make a code, which you can share to earn points. At the end of the program, the top 50 on the leaderboard will win CMF by Nothing products.

Besides the obvious security issue, referral programs have a problem, since people sharing links may not want you to purchase the best product, as they're incentivized with receiving products themselves.

Update: Nothing has silently taken the website down, but just like with their agency shenanigans, it's likely that we won't get any apologies or clarification, and the company will wait until this whole thing dies down.

CMF by Nothing hates privacy? This is just so scary. Someone found my data using my referral code. Why can’t you guys do things right? Everytime there has to be a privacy nightmare? What if this contained some extremely sensitive information? @AkisEvangelidis @getpeid
