The virus, once inside the device, releasing access to the user account on Amazon, collecting cookies and data access.

 

Mussler saw the flaw in October last year and reported to Amazon, which said soon have solved the problem. When launching a new page for managing ebooks on Kindle, however, the failure was reintroduced.
