URGENT: New data leak

226 replies

KitKat1985 · 19/08/2015 21:08

New data has just been leaked on the DadSec page - all the Mumsnet partner companies.

This is a huge breach and must have come from within your server as this wouldn't have just been phished.

Not exactly sure what that means Blush but the shit just keeps on hitting that fan doesn't it!

ouryve · 19/08/2015 21:11

Why are you telling us and not them?

SnozzberryPie · 19/08/2015 21:12

What does that mean?

KitKat1985 · 19/08/2015 21:12

I have messaged them and told them.

Dadsec page?

Girlinthefireplace · 19/08/2015 21:14

Holy shit! There's email addresses!

Icimoi · 19/08/2015 21:14

I may well be being thick, but why is it a data leak? Aren't all company details publicly available?

ObviouslyElsa · 19/08/2015 21:14

The Dadsec page on Twitter has been deleted.

londonrach · 19/08/2015 21:14

Messaged mnhq as well.

wankerchief · 19/08/2015 21:14

Link?

Iloveonionchutney · 19/08/2015 21:15

Which Dadsec page? The Twitter one has been suspended since all this started.

designedbynature · 19/08/2015 21:15

What page? The twitter account is suspended?

ProcrastinatorGeneral · 19/08/2015 21:15

Why are they targeting MN? Has that been ascertained yet?

Still suspended. Just checked their twitter.

Pffft you only have to spend 5 mins on the homepage to identify most of the companies Mumsnet works with.

A more exciting list would be who they haven't worked with. The rich, successful, money-grabbing gets Grin

The dadsec account has been suspended.

WhirlyTwos · 19/08/2015 21:18

That is a lot of partner companies!

Mumsnet, you must be earning a lot of revenue from sharing our data. How about reinvesting some of it in better security?

I wasn't convinced my account was compromised earlier due to phishing, now I'm even less convinced.

ladygracie · 19/08/2015 21:18

Oh. Cross posted with lots of people.

Murfles · 19/08/2015 21:19

Where is the Dadsec page? I've seen references to Twitter etc but can't find the links. Could PM me them I'd appreciate it. I want to know if my username and password was one of the ones mentioned.

KitKat1985 · 19/08/2015 21:20

I have posted the link to their page above.

It's @dad_sec but don't follow him, you'll just make him worse.

ladygracie · 19/08/2015 21:20

There's a thread called Am I on the list? That has the list in alphabetical order.

PuckyMup · 19/08/2015 21:21

Stupid Q but is clicking the link to that page safe? I've done it twice but now wondering if thats putting me open to problems?
