Security: 5 Year old Boy hacks Xbox Live

Kristoffer Von Hassel a 5 year old boy from the San Diego. Has found a backdoor within Xbox One's password protected profile. His parents were curious as to how their son was evading Xbox's security measures. They learned their son found a flaw in Microsofts security where all it took was spamming the space key on the password verification screen. Kristoffer and his father had since reported this to Microsoft and were rewarded with a year of Xbox Live, four games and $50.

Children are proved to be very resourceful. All they need is a bit of time mixed with creativity and nothing is impossible or as it seems impenetrable
