Facebook has been hacked! Well actually the social media giant has shown that everyone can be subject to viruses and programmers little tricks to “click here” actions.
“BERLIN — A recent wave of spam flooding Facebook users’ pages with graphic pictures depicting sex and violence has mostly been stopped, but the social networking site said Wednesday that people need to remain vigilant to keep their accounts from being hijacked.
Facebook in Germany said the latest attack tricked users into pasting and executing malicious JavaScript in their browser URL bar, exploiting a browser vulnerability that caused them to unknowingly share the content, according to a statement to news agency dapd.” by Foxnews.com
How will this affect Facebook long term? No one really knows. One thing is for certain, the social media giant will be upping security to help the average user avoid such programming scripts like the one that caused all of the problems this week.
