#Brazzers #Data – Brazzers Compromised By Massive Hack: 800K Accounts Exposed : A minimum of 790,724 unique email addresses and passwords belonging to registered users of the porn site Brazzers have been dumped online.
The details were generously offered by a data breach-monitoring site and seem to belong to accompanying user forum, “Brazzersforum.”
Motherboard reports that albeit the user forum is separate from the Brazzers website, the databases of the two are connected.
Troy Hunt, a security analyst that runs the site Have I Been Pwned?, is a third party who helped confirm the breach. He notes that each entry in the list contains an username, an email address and a password. What is worse, all the credentials are found in plain text, meaning that they are a hacker’s gold mine.
Matt Stevens, a spokesperson for Brazzers, admitted that the incident involving the publication of users’ details mirrors an incident that took place four years ago.
He notes that, at the time, the forum was managed by a third party. At the time of the writing, Brazzersforum.com shows an “under construction” status.
Stevens mentions that the 2012 incident happened as a direct result of the third party’s software vulnerability. According to Stevens, “the ‘vBulletin’ software, and not Brazzers itself” was to blame.
