Apple May Have Been Hacked By AntiSec, Lulz Security

AntiSec, a hacker movement containing members from both Anonymous and Lulz Security have posted a document containing a list of 27 Apple administrator usernames and passwords.

The WSJ first reported that AntiSec has tweeted,

"Not being so serious, but well: http://t.co/DOE7Aeh | #Apple could be target, too. But don't worry, we are busy elsewhere. "

9to5Mac also reports that Lulz Security recently said they were able to hack iCloud.

Some weeks ago, we smashed into the iCloud with our heavy artillery Lulz Cannons and decided to switch to ninja mode. From our LFI entry point, we acquired command execution via local file inclusion of enemy fleet Apache vessel. We then found that the HTTPD had SSH auth keys, which let our ship SSH into other servers. See where this is going?

We then switched to root ammunition rounds. And we rooted... and rooted... and rooted... After mapping their internal network and thoroughly pillaging all of their servers, we grabbed all their source code and database passwords, which we proceeded to shift silently back to our storage deck.


Apple hasn't responded to requests for comment on the matter.
