Okay so we have some Xbox news and not the good kind. Private information has been leaked through Xbox live through a bug that has been fixed according to the article. The issue is though is that this didn’t stop private information from getting out. So in other words double check to make sure you credit is okay and everything Xbox Series X and Xbox One.
“A new Xbox Live bug has been discovered that allowed hackers to obtain the gamertag email addresses of Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S users. At the moment, this appears to be the extent of the exploit, which has seemingly been fixed, but not before exposing a serious bug in the system, one that Microsoft initially didn’t seem very concerned with because while the breach leaks emails, this is the only information it was leaking.
Word of the bug in the system comes way Motherboard, who was contacted by an anonymous hacker who exposed the issue to the outlet, which didn’t just take the hacker’s word but verified the issue. Meanwhile, a different hacker revealed that this bug is found in the Xbox Live enforcement portal, a page that allows Xbox users to contact Microsoft directly.
When Motherboard first reached out to comment, Microsoft seemingly downplayed the problem as “something that does not meet the MSRC bar for service.”
“An email may be considered sensitive information, however, since it provides nothing else to identify the issuer, is not something that meets MSRC bar for service. As such, MSRC is not tracking the issue and will leave it to the product group to determine a mitigation as needed.”
