Ugly Wired.com Image Exploit


Apparently, anyone can take advantage of a security flaw in Wired.com's website by creating an image of a fake story.  Today's blunder was a fake story about Steve Jobs going into Cardiac arrest.  Seriously Wired, get with the program and fix this.

All you have to do is change the image path and viola, you've posted on Wired for the uninformed.  Sigh.
