This guy found a way to edit ANY video title and description

Fucking braindamaged kid, read his posts, if he's older than 15 fucking kill me.
"hmmm, i could make millions of dollars out of posting my aff links as titles, but i'm just gonna meme like a retard xD "

True but if he had posted his links he'd go to jail. He's most likely behind 20 VPN's and Tor nodes.

The thing to note here is the weak security. People devote their lives to YT and this thing can be wrecked just like that by a 15 YO.
 
sure thing Ctrl+Shift+i or right click and Inspect - you will be able to edit anything... but only on your browser
 
Were there any specific details released about the vulnerability? Just out of curiosity
 
Why are the people who can find these bugs so autistic when it comes to making money ffs...

Not necessarily. You can always just edit all the BH crap out there and no one will bat an eye. There are also ways to hide your tracks pretty well on a lot of networks, especially with those who pay through Payoneer/PayPal, which is most. Not legal was, but "safe enough" ways.
 
Such people are genuinely gifted. Unlike the general population, they see vulnerabilities in everything. Nothing is impossible to them, and they simplify everything before complicating it, to feel and appear smart.
Too bad, they're not very good at monetizing their rare talents because they're always looking for the next vulnerability. It's a game to them.

**don't ask me how I know all this. It's very hard to explain.
 
Are you complicating it to make you appear smart? :smirk:
I'm naturally lazy, I always avoid instances where I'll have to explain myself or something. And just to clarify, I wasn't describing myself up there
 
They are young french guys and it seem they dont realize what they did.
Apparently they find the github account of a vevo programer and were able to access to the private source code of vevo video management software. A password and username of the dashboard was in the code and they change the things like that.

There is nothing genius is such bugs. Most of the time they find them accidentally. There is no authentic method to replicate them.

And no matter how much they hide, If there is big money involved they will be caught. :)

Do you have a link? Would be interested in reading more. Of course it was VEVO that was compromised and not YT

Maybe whoever did this did make tons of money then decided to void the method after he/she was rich.
