2020-05-18 14:47
An update rolled out recently by Edison Mail for its iOS application resulted in some users being given access to other people's email accounts.
Edison Mail provides apps that allow users to manage their Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, iCloud and other inboxes from one place.
Several users reported over the weekend that they could access other people's email accounts from the iOS app without the need to provide credentials.
Edison Mail said the incident potentially impacted 6,480 users of the iOS application.
The first patch was released on Saturday morning, but this fix prevented impacted users from accessing any account from the Edison app.
