Description

An attacker, who may have gotten the information from the database of a third party, claims to have access to the OAuth login tokens and secrets for every Twitter user. He has posted more than 15,000 of the entries online and claims that he can now access the account of any user he wishes. Twitter officials, however, say no accounts have been compromised.
