Facebook has awarded $10,000 in prize money to a 10-year-old Finnish boy who found a security flaw on Instagram, which Facebook owns.
Jani became the youngest person to ever win Facebook’s “bug bounty,” which is awarded to users who find security flaws on Facebook’s various platforms.
“I wanted to see if Instagram’s comment field could stand malicious code. Turns out it couldn’t,” Jani told a Finnish newspaper, Reuters translates.
