Two security researchers blew by Dropbox's security features, gained access to private user files and published a paper that explained how they did it.
Their goal was to get Dropbox to create an open source version of itself, which means that anyone could look at its code and verify that the service is secure.
For instance, it added encryption and something called "two-factor authentication" which makes users take extra steps to log into a Dropbox account.
The researchers disabled both of those protections.
