Hacked AdultFriendFinder: Leak 400 million accounts

The AdultFriendFinder and Cams.com websites are reported to be hacked, as hundreds of millions of user accounts have leaked them online.

According to LeakedSource, her network Finder έγινε hacked με ένα RFI exploit (remote file inclusion). Αυτό επέτρεψε στους επιτιθέμενους να αποκτήσουν πρόσβαση στις βάσεις δεδομένων όλων των σελίδων που ανήκουν στην , namely: AdultFriendFinder, Cams.com, Penthouse, Stripshow, iCams.com and another “unknown domain.”

The RFI exploit was detected a few weeks ago by the administrators of AdultFriendFinder, and is believed to be the same responsible for leaking customer information on the page.

Total over 400 million user accounts, 339 million from AdultFriendFinder, 62 million from Cams.com. All other accounts are from other pages in the Friend Finder network.

It should be mentioned that the company Friend Finder had not taken care to properly encrypt the access. Many were stored in plain text, without any protection, while others were hashed using the weak SHA1 algorithm, which is very easy to .

So if you had an AdultFriendFinder account, or any other webpage on the network, do not use the same code in other services. Of course you will need to change your code instantly, wherever you use it.

To make it worse, let's say that LeakedSource claims the Friend Finder Network retained the data of users who had deleted their accounts.

If that's true, her leak Ashley Madison website it seems to be a fault compared to the new hack. The leakage of user data can have disastrous consequences for them of the website.

Let's recall that after Ashley Madison's hack many of the users of the page were blackmailed by hackers or by those who took the data.
