reporting flows that allows people to report multiple instances of
inappropriate content simultaneously," Facebook quoted.
"The bug allowed anyone to view a
limited number of another user's most recently uploaded photos irrespective of
the privacy settings for these photos," it said.
"This was the result of one of our
recent code pushes and was live for a limited period of time," Facebook reported.
"Upon discovering the bug, we
immediately disabled the system, and will only return functionality once we can
confirm the bug has been fixed," it said.
An unauthorized person posted "It's
time to fix those security flaws Facebook..." with the CEO’s private
photos, since it reaches more than millions of people in Facebook.
Facebook said "the privacy of our
user's data is a top priority for us, and we invest significant resources in
protecting our site and the people who use it."
