You should probably post this in another section of the forum like Bitcoin discussion or technical discussion.

technical discussion.
It will do better on that section.
This worries me, can someone that does have deeper knowledge on the technical side can explain more of this?

That's FUD to the bitcoin

Quote
It might be possible to scan bitcoin private keys sitting on the network due to a vulnerability in the way bitcoin was #designed since there is nothing really safeguarding the internal framework of the bitcoin wallet either in classic, core or #other variants. Even by encrypting your wallet nothing prevents the importation of a private key by changing a configuration #flag in any wallet whether it is classic, core or a variant. I have attempted to test a basic attack vector using a password #generation program based on JTR and crunch (https://sourceforge.net/projects/crunch-wordlist/) to generate a range of base 58 #values based on bitcoin private keys and under further modification it is possible to continue to customize this form of #private key deep scan and execute it as a basic attack vector. The banking system should be notified not to get on-board with #the Bitcoin network,

If what was saying by this guy is true and i can argue if he can generate the privatekey through modify use password generation. It's basically use sha 256 and in knowledge that's not possible to gain the privatekey through use the generator password. This just like a joke

Surely this isn't real. If it was, by now we would have heard from a bunch of different people that their coins have dissapeared. Also, i'm sure he would have cracked that wallet Satoshi has with millions of coins in it.. Seems like that would be the first one to go for and would have already been all over the news.

Technical discussion or technical support would give the better support for to discuss about this vulnerability issues on the Bitcoin wallet. I didn't see any one sharing their complaint about the issue on their private key.
Recent days we may see the issue on myetherwallet that too happened for the people who is using the wallet DNS attacked browser. Other than that no one will give best out of it mate.
