Evernote Denies Java Exploit Used In Hack

Evernote disclosed that an intrusion into its network exposed information for about 50 million users (usernames and email addresses). The company says passwords were stored hashed and salted and that it has not found evidence of unauthorized account access; investigation is ongoing and Evernote believes the incident likely did not rely on the Java exploit tied to other recent attacks, though a watering-hole/Mac-focused vector has been suggested by third parties.
