A recent error response from Google’s “Too Many Requests” system has exposed a user’s IP address, raising concerns about the company’s data handling practices.
The incident occurred when a client made a request to Google’s servers, triggering the “Too Many Requests” limit. However, instead of returning a generic error message, the system displayed a response that included the client’s IP address, along with other sensitive information such as the request ID.
This breach highlights the need for robust security measures in place to protect user data, particularly in situations where sensitive information is inadvertently disclosed. Google has not commented on this incident, but experts are urging the company to review its error handling procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
