Brute force attack on ATT servers to get iPad user info...

Quote:
NEW YORK (Reuters) – U.S. prosecutors have charged two men with stealing and distributing email addresses for about 120,000 users of Apple Inc's popular iPad.
Investigators accused Daniel Spitler and Andrew Auernheimer of using an "account slurper" to conduct a "brute force" attack over five days last June, to extract data about iPad users who accessed the Internet through AT&T Inc's 3G network.


Quote:
Prosecutors said both defendants are associated with Goatse Security, a group of "self-professed Internet 'trolls'" who try to disrupt online content and services. They said Auernheimer bragged in published interviews about his trolling.

Goatse...really? :roll:

Thank you gentlemen for exposing the holes in our security, and congratulations on gaining your own security for the next 5-10 years.

Don't bend over to pick up the soap, buh-bye.

I always laughed when Apple people said their systems were hack and virus proof. At the time Mac users were about .5-2% of the population. Now that they are so broadly accepted we'll see how much stuff hackers start pulling off their "air-tight" systems.

Seriously, no-one else is picking up on the fact that the alleged members of "Goatse Security" were using an "account slurper"?

While I don't disagree, this was a compromise of at&ts systems, not a consumer apple device. iPads are actually pretty secure - the same stuff that makes them user hostile in terms of installing your own stuff is actually also a significant obstacle to getting malware executed.

The OSX stack is pretty good. iOS then takes it a bit further.
