A flaw in medical software used by more than 40,000 Australian health specialists and distributed by Telstra has potentially exposed Australians' medical information to hackers.

Hackers have been logging into practitioners' computers and servers to carry out illegal activities.

The flaw in the "secure" messaging software is specifically leaving computers with remote desktop software installed wide open because it creates a separate username with a static default password that will allow for an easy intrusion.
