Exposed: WhatsApp profile pic privacy blunder bug

Image
A privacy hole in WhatsApp allowed anyone to view someone else's profile photo – even if a user had configured the mobile messenger app to only show their pic to their contacts. The privacy slip-up, which came with the debut of WhatsApp’s newly-introduced web interface atweb.whatsapp.com, was discovered by 17-year-old security researcher Indrajeet Bhuyan. The service was designed to allow users to chat with WhatsApp contacts through a browser, potentially on a PC or laptop. Privacy settings applied on the mobile app were apparently not carried over onto the browser-based version of the technology, launched just days ago and only available through Google's Chrome browser.

In this article, I have used the word "application", but actually you can corrupt any files in Windows operating system. The trick is not a rocket science type. Just follow these simple steps and you are done... 1. Open up CMD(Command Prompt) as Administrator . I'm sure you know how to do this.  For Windows 7: Start->All Programs->Accessories->Command Prompt For Windows 8: Just type 'cmd' in the search window. You will get it. 2. Now, type the following line. assoc .exe=.pur 3. Hit Enter. Now, if you want to run the .exe files you will see a window like this. I have used the .pur extension because there is no such extension in Windows. The assoc stands for association. So, what does the command do? The command simply converts every .exe file into the mysterious .pur extension. And when you try to execute the application file i.e. .exe, your computer system doesn't have program to run .pur files! Thus all your application files b
