Bundeswehr's classified meetings found online
The German military confirmed earlier reports of a vulnerability affecting the Webex software it uses for online meetings. In March, a leaked German military meeting was publicized by Russian media.
Germany's military has admitted on Saturday a flaw in the video-conferencing tool it uses left thousands of its meetings publicly accessible online.
Zeit Online reported accessing German Bundeswehr meetings by using simple search terms on the military's Webex system.
"It was not possible to participate in the video conferences without the knowledge of the participants or without authorization," a spokesperson for the military told French news agency AFP.
The Bundeswehr is already on the defensive after audio of air force officials discussing giving Ukraine long-range missiles was leaked by Russians online in March. The incident is currently being investigated by federal prosecutors.
The security breach occurred on the Bundeswehr's own Webex version, which is more secure than the publicly available version.
