Google CEO Sundar Pichai's Quora account - CNET

Google CEO Sundar Pichai seems to have been the latest target of hacker group Ourmine, the hacking group who claimed responsibility for hacking into Mark Zuckerberg's social media accounts earlier this month. The group made several posts to Pichai's Twitter account from his Quora account to Pichai's 508,000 followers, and claimed to have into both.

However, unlike the Zuckerberg hack, where entry was gained into his accounts using a password obtained from the massive leak of LinkedIn data, access to Pichai's Quora account seems to have been via a vulnerability on Quora's end. According to The Next Web, Ourmine claims to have reported this vulnerability to Quora, with no response.

As of time of writing, Pichai's Twitter and Quora accounts seem to have been retued to normal. Quora and Google did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
