Burger King hacked, systems described as 'solid as a paper Whopper wrapper in the rain’ – hackers 'impressed by the commitment to terrible security practices,' also exploited other RBI brands like Tim Hortons and Popeyes

Ethical hackers uncovered severe vulnerabilities in Restaurant Brands International's systems, affecting Burger King, Tim Hortons, and Popeyes. The hackers gained access to employee accounts, ordering systems, and drive-thru recordings. Security flaws included easily exploitable domains and hardcoded passwords. Despite responsibly disclosing the issues, the hackers were not acknowledged. The hackers emphasize that no customer data was kept during their research, and they playfully suggest that Wendy's has better security practices.
