Bankr Dev Suspects X Backend Flaws After Hackers Bypass Account Locks

Bankr deployer alleges X Corp backend vulnerabilities or insider risk, as attackers posted despite team lockouts and 503 errors.

Woofun AI reports that Bankr’s developer suspects serious security flaws in X Corp’s backend systems or potential internal personnel risks following the compromise of the Bankr X account. The deployer stated that although Passkey was enabled, the team was redirected to an account suspension appeal page while attackers continued posting malicious links.

The developer highlighted that the team encountered 503 errors from the X API, yet the attackers maintained full posting capabilities. He noted similar recent takeovers of high-profile accounts, including those of Robinhood’s CEO and SpaceX, some with MFA enabled, and urged X to investigate.
