Data Leak in Marriott's Android App
 
The flaw hasn't left "Credit Card Data 'Wide Open' for Hackers" as this sensationalist article seems to indicate as only the last 4 of a CC was seen this way.

From the article: "Though only the last four digits of the credit card information were revealed, that would be enough for many identity thieves, who can take the data and try to hack into victims’ other accounts."

... how?! Every restaurant receipt has that and my name on it, too. Big deal.
