Report – Alibaba security flaw potentially exposes user info to hackers

12/11/2014

Hangzhou, China – A security flaw in AliExpress, an online marketplace that allows international consumers to make purchases on the Alibaba e-commerce platform, reportedly could have exposed personal information of millions of users to hackers. According to CNBC, Israeli security AppSec Labs discovered the flaw, which would have allowed hackers to alter orders and also gain access to customer personal and financial data, not including credit card numbers.



Alibaba said it has fixed the flaw and it is not clear whether any criminals actually gained access to consumer information or orders.
