GOOG took off half the short it can now run to 207ish for break even 14:44 GOOG Google: Gmail accounts 'wide open to exploit' - Nana Netlife (196.60 +3.20) -- Update -- Israeli website Nana Netlife reports there is a major security hole in Google's mail service, which allows full access to user accounts without the need of a password. "Everything could get publicly exposed -- your received mails might be readable, as well as all of your sent mail, and furthermore -- anyone could send and receive mail under your name", reveals an Israeli hacker. "Even more alarming is the fact that the hack itself is quite simple. All that is needed of the malicious hacker, beside knowledge of the specific technique, is quite basic computer knowledge, the victim's username -- and that's it, he's inside". When approached, GOOG admitted to the security flaw, and assured Nana that this matter is being resolved, and that "the company will go to any length to protect its users".
