How I Found a Vulnerability to Hack iCloud Accounts and How Apple Reacted to It
Why are the Security Departments of ever company so unfriendly? I feel like every blog post of a disclosed vulnerability has had some form or another of:
- no replies
- delayed replies
- vague replies
- playing down the vulnerability
- reducing the bountyIt’s like they still treat a white hat hacker as a risk, instead o cooperating with them. I don’t get the corporations. The white hat hacker is in this case your best friend. They proved their ethics already by reporting it to them, and they know it already because they found it. There is literally no reason to try to keep the white hat hacker in the dark, not update them, etc. The white hat hacker could have exploited the vulnerability already!
