Links from week 14 (5-11 April)

• The Facebook Phone Numbers Are Now Searchable in Have I Been Pwned (troyhunt.com) - Facebook recently leaked half a millions phone numbers and other details of it's users.

• Breaking GitHub Private Pages for $35k (robertchen.cc) - write up of vulnerability found in GitHub Private Pages. Beyond my understanding the way that these bugs can be discovered, a bit like threading a needle as it says at the end of the article
• The Wildest Insurance Fraud Scheme Texas Has Ever Seen (texasmonthly.com) - long form about an agent managing to track down a serial insurance fraudster
