This seems like they need to.. revamp their processes completely. Don't you think any new PRODUCTION software being released, during the increased hack threats ever being reported... during the busiest shopping of the year.. would have been verified across 3 different points at least??
Development -> Testing of changes across at least 3 environments
Quality Assurance -> Verifying only what's changed works as expected? Maybe lets spend a bit more time on that one.
Security Review -> Verifying security points through automated & manual review pertinent to the change? Something with accounts, passwords, users was changed. Additional security review of files, users... lsof and strace work on a basic level when you don't work at Apple.
Apple.. this is Kindergarten stuff.. it should be embarrassing with a follow-up assurance package for a year verifying security on offline, local levels..for all of your AppleCare customers.
Experian, Red Code.. Every Apple across the world? Common guys.. Kindergarten.
