A Facebook glitch has allowed users to snoop on private photos of other members, including the site's founder Mark Zuckerberg.

A Facebook glitch has allowed users to snoop on private photos of other members, including the site's founder Mark Zuckerberg.

The fault was part of a tool that lets users report offensive contents.

If users clicked on a profile, then reported it as containing inappropriate content, it then prompted the site to reveal other private photos from that user's account, asking if they were also offensive.

Facebook say the bug has now been disabled.
