Cryptographic analysis from ETH Zurich researchers Jonas Hofmann and Kien Tuong Turong revealed issue with Sync, pCloud, Icedrive, Seafile, and Tresorit services, collectively used by more than 22 million people. The analysis was based on the threat model of an attacker controlling a malicious server that can read, modify, and inject data at will, which is realistic for nation-state actors and sophisticated hackers.

Interesting stuff, but it’s worth noting the scope and circumstances.
