Adult dating service company Friend Finder Network has reportedly been hacked, with over 412 million accounts, email addresses, and passwords from their websites made available on criminal marketplaces.
Notably, the database does not include more detailed personal information, but could still be used to confirm whether a person was a user of the service.
The passwords were either stored as plain text or encrypted using the obsolete and insecure SHA-1 cipher.Reached by phone, a company representative noted that they could not disclose information about the breach, but that they would be in touch. Friend Finder Networks (formerly Various, Inc.) is an American internet company founded in 1996 by Andrew Conru.Shashoua also said credit card companies had refused to process transactions for the company's Internet businesses.
On November 13, 2016, it was reported that a database of over 412 million accounts, including usernames, e-mails, and passwords, had been breached and leaked from several Friend Finder Networks websites.According toa security researcher going by the name Revolver uncovered Local File Inclusion vulnerabilities on the site in October.Shortly thereafter, Friend Finder Network's vice president, and senior counsel of corporate compliance & litigation, Diana Lynn Ballou provided with a statement: "We are aware of reports of a security incident, and we are currently investigating to determine the validity of the reports." This isn’t the first time Adult Friend Finder has run into trouble: in May 2015, 3.5 million user accounts were exposed in another hack.Asked why he was doing this, Auernheimer said: "I went straight for government employees because they seem the easiest to shame." Millions of others remain unnamed for now, but anyone can open the files -- which remain freely available online.
