Apple Security Flaw Found

Hackers may be hijacking Apple ID accounts.

It's kind of like when the most popular kid in school gets tripped. Tech news site The Verge said Friday it has found a step-by-step tutorial online showing how to change another user's Apple ID and hijack their account using a modified Apple URL. Though Verge did not post a link to the tutorial out of safety concerns, it recommended that users enable Apple ID's two-step verification, which sends users a new code every time they want to access their account. However, some users report notifications saying that they must wait three days before using the two-step verification. Apple, meanwhile, says they are working on a fix and have taken down the iForgot page, which was a key part of the hijacking process.
