Valve’s gaming platform is experiencing a Christmas disaster

by John_A

Valve’s Steam platform is giving players access to people’s private accounts. As per reports, when players log into their accounts for details, they’re able to access someone else’s information including email addresses, credit card details and previous purchases. What makes this security lapse more critical for the gaming platform today is that the site was in the middle of its winter sale with a large number of people buying online.

While the problem hasn’t surfaced for all users on the website, many have reported being able to access random accounts this afternoon. The reason for the security blunder isn’t clear yet. But as per the most recent update on Reddit, the company is “working on it.”
