LastPass has a bunch of critical problems of which at least one allows attackers to compromise the password manager remotely according to Google researcher Tavis Ormandy.

LastPass is one of the most popular online password management services on today's Internet. The service offers extensions for various browsers, mobile apps, and dedicated solutions for various operating systems and devices.

A full report was sent to LastPass by Tavis Ormandy and it appears that the company is working on analyzing and fixing the issues at the time of writing.

The issues have not been disclosed publicly yet. While that is the right thing to do until they are fixed, it means that LastPass users don't really know if the issue can be mitigated until a fix is provided.
