Default iCloud photos vulnerable to hackers (basically they could steal almost everything you've put into the iCloud)

UPDATE

o *Wormable Apple iCloud Bug Allows Automatic Photo Theft*
https://threatpost.com/3-month-apple-hack-vulnerabilities-critical/159988/

"Among the flaws found in core portions of Apple's infrastructure
includes ones that would have allowed an attacker to:
- fully compromise both customer and employee applications;
- launch a worm capable of automatically taking over a victim's iCloud account;
- retrieve source code for internal Apple projects;
- fully compromise an industrial control warehouse software used by Apple;
- and take over the sessions of Apple employees
with the capability of accessing management tools and sensitive resources"
