Snapchat is a popular mobile photo messaging app for iOS andAndroid that allows anyone to send photos and videos and set how long the recipient can view the message.
This is a great feature for anyone who wants to send out photos for friends.
The app may be great however as early as August of this year theGibson Security research team has reported to Snapchat an exploit that affects both iOS and Android devices.
Despite the warning the exploit still exists until this very moment.There are 2 exploits that have been discovered.
The 1st exploit is a bug in the program that could allow hackers to get the phone numbers, names, and aliases from the accounts in bulk.
The 2nd exploit allows anyone to create an unlimited amount of dummy accounts which could be used in spamming and other scams.
