Check Point Research uncovers multiple vulnerabilities in TikTok which could have allowed attackers to manipulate content on user accounts, and extract confidential personal information saved on these accounts. TikTok is used mainly by teenagers and kids to share, save and keep private (and sometimes very sensitive) videos of themselves and friends. The research found that an attacker could send a spoofed SMS message to a user containing a malicious link. If the user clicked on the malicious link, the attacker was able to access the users TikTok account and manipulate its content by deleting videos, uploading unauthorized videos, and making private or hidden videos public.”]
