Ce type d\u2019avertissement consiste souvent en une tentative d\u2019hame\u00e7onnage. Pour en avoir le coeur net, une solution toute simple: v\u00e9rifier l\u2019adresse e-mail de l\u2019exp\u00e9diteur. Or, dans ce cas pr\u00e9cis, le courrier \u00e9manait d\u2019une adresse a priori s\u00fbre (\u201csecurity@mail.instagram.com\u201d) et le lien affich\u00e9 renvoyait vers \u201cinstagram.com\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/a><\/a>En r\u00e9alit\u00e9,\u00a0comme le r\u00e9v\u00e8le le site suisse RTS, une \u201cfaille\u201d \u00e9ph\u00e9m\u00e8re a permis \u00e0 des pirates de d\u00e9clencher l\u2019envoi massif de ce type d\u2019e-mail officiel de r\u00e9initialisation de mot de passe. Meta, la maison m\u00e8re d\u2019Instagram, a d\u2019ailleurs reconnu le probl\u00e8me. Le \u201cbug\u201d a \u00e9t\u00e9 corrig\u00e9, assure la direction qui a appel\u00e9 ses utilisateurs \u00e0 ignorer l\u2019e-mail re\u00e7u. Aucune \u201cintrusion\u201d malveillante n\u2019a en revanche \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9tect\u00e9e et les comptes restent \u201cs\u00e9curis\u00e9s\u201d, insiste Instagram dans un post distinct, qui s\u2019excuse par ailleurs pour le sentiment de \u201cconfusion\u201d l\u00e9gitime provoqu\u00e9<\/p>\n\n\n\n RTS souligne n\u00e9anmoins que ce \u201cbug\u201d co\u00efncide \u00e9trangement avec la circulation sur le dark web d\u2019un fichier de donn\u00e9es personnelles de 17 millions de comptes, comprenant notamment des adresses e-mail, des noms d\u2019utilisateurs et des num\u00e9ros de t\u00e9l\u00e9phone…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" De nombreux utilisateurs Instagram ont r\u00e9cemment re\u00e7u par mail une invitation \u00e0 changer de mot de passe.
