Apple Developer site has been attacked by a security expert. His intention, he says, was to warn of leaks of information in the system of the company. He has had access to 275,000 accounts.
According to The Guardian, Apple has recognized an attack on their site developer.apple.com held last Thursday and has been claimed by the Turkish security expert Ibrahim Balic.
Balic has posted a video on YouTube detailing the intrusion and argues that it is not an attack hacker but a warning to Apple , who instantly reported Thursday. Soon after, the Apple Developer site became inaccessible.
“My intention was not to attack” , stressed Balic. “A total of 13 bugs found and reported directly, one by one, on them to Apple. Shortly after that report, the developer center was closed,” he explained.Balic says that “you have not heard of Apple” since errors are reported, and complains that “announced they were attacked.” “My goal was to inform and collect data error in order to know how deep I could go,” he insists.
Earlier, in February, hackers managed to inject ‘malicious software through the Apple Developer site, which had come to the Mac for some employees. In the past also used tricks through services such as customer care to hack into isolated accounts.
Concern about this intrusion has spread to applications and jumped doubt whether any of those available in the App Store has been infected. However, Apple ensures that the attacker does not have access to the code developers.
