DrGravitas Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Ars Technica reports a serious architectural flaw has been discovered in the browser extension password manager LastPass. It may allow malicious websites to steal passwords or even execute malicious code. As the vulnerability was discovered by Google's Project Zero, little has been released about the exploit but the team has been given 3 months before details are released. Personally, I prefer application-based management tools that exist without directly tying to the browser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fennecbyte Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Obviously, the best way to store your passwords is to write them on a sticky note and stick it to your monitor. Neither Chinese hackers nor exploits can get those off of your sticky notes. :v 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tried flying a camera drone up to a window to take pictures of the sticky notes and we quickly found out we were duped by a knockoff camera that had shit resolution but a great price. We couldn't make out shit about those passwords, Hyun So figures there's a Q and T in there, but I don't know, they look more like an elephant and an R to me... Anyways, we sourced out a decent camera for round two, got the drone up in the air and wouldn't you know it, the cheap plastic we made the rotor blades out of flew apart which sent our drone crashing 60ft to the ground. We blew our budget on that good camera, and now everything is broken... We figured we'd just send an agent claiming to be a "Home Quality Inspector" to physically enter your home later on and get those passwords in person, or wait, fuck, the backspace key on my cheap knockoff keyboard just broke. Disregard that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
