Hacker scores US$20,000 for unearthing Steam flaw

-

Researcher and hacker Artem Moskowsky discovered a flaw in Steam’s developer portal which allowed users to generate an infinite number of game codes. Moskowsky notified Valve of the issue and was awarded US$20,000, which is a much easier way of making money than generating game codes and hocking them off on third-party key reseller sites. The flaw has now been fixed up.
