Hackers managed to hijack some 2.2 million links posted through the URL 
shortening service Cligs, redirecting the links to a single page.  A security flaw in 
the company’s URL editing software was exploited to change the web addresses of 
the links.  The hacker did not redirect the URLs to a malicious site, but the attack 
demonstrates how URL shorteners could be used by cybercriminals to direct users 
to malicious sites for phishing or to spread malware.
