LinkedIn password change flaw poses threat to hacked profiles

A vulnerability in LinkedIns password change process poses a potential threat to all users. A hacker named Peace is attempting to sell 117 million LinkedIn users emails and passwords on The Real Deal, a dark web marketplace which traffics primarily in zero-day exploits. The hacker originally stole the data during the LinkedIn breach of 2012. The original hackers posted only 6.5 million usernames and passwords at the time. In reality, it appears that they had access to details of 167 million accounts, including 117 for which both passwords and emails were available.”]
