A so-called "security researcher" claims to have discovered a flaw in Apple Mail that could allow hackers to get iCloud passwords. The "Flaw"? Apple allows Apple Mail to display HTML code in email. Such HTML code could be used to trick email users into thinking they were looking at an Apple iCloud log-in page and enter their credentials. SHEESH and Good Grief and other expressions of astonishment at such sheer stupidity of thought from a "security researcher" and the editors who swallow such bilge. That's what a PHISHING expedition in email does and IS, for Pete's Sake! — PING!


Apple Security for "Security Researchering" Idiots
Ping!

Are you quite sure this isn’t satire?
