Cyber security researchers found that an attacker can register any unused (not previously registered with Google apps service) domain, example:with Google apps for Work to obtain ‘[email protected]’ account. Researchers reported this security and privacy issue to the search engine giant, and the company has applied a partial patch to the flaw.
