{ Community Alert } Teamviewer Exploited - S3xySmurf - 12-06-2017
Team viewer is vulnerable to an attack which allows full control over the users PC, Windows, Mac & Linux and it ignores the permissions set by the client.
First the exploit code: https://github.com/gellin/TeamViewer_Permissions_Hook_V1

Luckily this isn't a remote flaw but those with weak default passwords should change them immediately.
Keep your shit secure.

I think no matter what any type of news like this should be spread in the right areas for those who may still use such software.

Although not as popular as It was a few years ago, TeamViewer Is still widely used by a lot of corporations. Tech support use It at my work when remotely troubleshooting network Issues.
Appreciate the news.
