A hacker breached Dota 2 and reopened pro players' stats to the public

A hacker under the nickname Fabio Longo has found a vulnerability in Dota 2 and re-opened access to Immortal Draft player match statistics that were previously hidden by Valve.

The hacker left an eloquent message to the game's developers on the Gabenshole website.

“Hi Gabe Newell. Finding your **** didn't turn out to be that hard. Next time you make such a ***** decision as closing professional player stats, at least try to fix the obvious vulnerabilities so that even an amateur like me can't exploit them. P.S. Thanks for Dota 2. It has become more than just a game for many of us. Love, Fabio Longo”

The hacker stated that the vulnerability was quite easy to find, and now everyone has access to not only the stats of the pubs, but even private matches and team practices. Given that even information that was previously hidden appeared in the public domain, Valve should soon close the vulnerability and close the portal with the matches of players.

Recall that earlier there was information that Valve may release a new patch for Dota 2 this week.
