Now German 18-year-old Linus Henze has uncovered a vulnerability affecting the latest Apple macOS that leaves stored passwords open to malicious apps. And even though this is a Mac-only bug, if you’re using the iCloud keychain, passwords synced across iPhones and Macs may also be in danger. Apple has promised a fix and will reportedly give the 14-year-old payment via its iOS bug bounty program. “It's like they don’t really care about macOS,” Henze said. Kudos, kidForbes had Apple Mac security specialist Patrick Wardle test the exploit.
