As reported by Bleeping Computer, Twitter has removed some users after addressing an issue where some Twitter accounts remained registered on some mobile devices after voluntary password resets. “This means that if you proactively changed your password on one device, but had a session open on another device, that session may not have been closed. Web sessions were not affected and closed properly, ” Twitter explained.
There are several potential privacy risks for Twitter users who were affected by this bug, including access to their accounts by others who got hold of devices that were left locked without the user’s knowledge. Because of this, the company contacted those who may have been affected and had them sign out of their accounts in all active sessions on all devices.
