Warning: Do not use Hive Social ⚠️🐝

We found multiple critical security vulnerabilities in the App, leaking private messages, posts, images and user data like phone numbers, emails and birthdates.

People on Twitter wished for an edit button. One of Hive's security vulnerabilities allows even more: You can edit posts of other accounts.

To not endanger the privacy of the people currently using Hive even further, we are only publishing a short product warning. Once the issues are fixed, we will publish a more in depth analysis including technical details.

@zerforschung I just went on the site. Not only are there no posts appearing, I created a post AND THE POST DISAPPEARED!!!!! Massive fail. Delete the app ASAP.
