- 短信路由有助于将时间紧迫的短信送达不同区域蜂窝网络和提供商的正确目的地，例如用户接收用于登录在线服务的短信安全码或链接。
- 通过短信发送的验证码不如更强大的双重认证形式安全——例如基于应用程序的验证码生成器。
YX International 专营蜂窝网络设备制造和 SMS 短信路由服务，近日被发现将一个内部数据库暴露在互联网上且未设密码。该数据库包含敏感信息，例如可能允许访问用户 Facebook、Google 和 TikTok 账户的一次性安全验证码。
暴露的数据库及与 TechCrunch 的合作
据报道，YX International 每日发送高达 500 万条短信。然而，此次暴露带来了重大安全风险，因为它允许不受限制地访问发送给用户的短信内容，包括面向 Facebook、WhatsApp、Google 和 TikTok 等大型科技和互联网公司的一次性验证码和密码重置链接。 另见: Ziggo集团任命领导人，备战2027年阿姆斯特丹上市.
知名安全研究员 Anurag Sen 发现了这个暴露的数据库，并将详情分享给 TechCrunch，以帮助确定其所有者并报告该安全漏洞。该数据库包含可追溯到 2023 年 7 月的月度日志，其规模持续增长，可能暴露了大量敏感信息。
基于短信的 2FA 安全隐患
此事件引发了人们对基于短信的双因素认证（2FA）安全性的担忧，该机制旨在为防范账户劫持提供额外保护。虽然通过短信发送的 2FA 代码被广泛使用，但它们不如其他形式的 2FA 安全，例如基于应用程序的代码生成器，因为它们容易遭到拦截或泄露。
在 TechCrunch 发现该暴露数据库后，同时还发现了与 YX International 相关联的多组内部电子邮件地址及对应密码。在通知该公司后，数据库被迅速下线，且 YX International 的一位代表表示，该漏洞已被修复。 另见: NOBAQ Nikolaus Hammler.

暴露持续时间及未经授权的访问
关于数据库暴露的持续时间以及是否可能发生了未经授权的访问，仍然存在疑问。该公司的回应，特别是关于服务器缺少访问日志的情况，使得潜在数据泄露的范围仍不确定。 另见: 互联网公用事业欧亚有限公司.
此事件凸显了强大安全措施的至关重要性，尤其是对于处理敏感用户数据和通信的公司而言。在网络安全威胁和数据泄露事件日益增多的时代，各组织必须优先保护用户信息，并迅速修复任何可能危及数据完整性和隐私的漏洞。 另见: HUGUET协会（前身为INDIA-01）.
当被请求置评时，Meta、Google 和 TikTok 的代表未回应就此事的置评请求，这突显了科技公司在应对数据安全事件时需要更高的透明度和责任感。 另见: korea.
