Apple and Google passwords exposed

Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered what they are calling the 'mother of all breaches.' They discovered a massive collection of 30 databases containing more than 16 billion individual records, including passwords, for government accounts, Apple, Google, Facebook, Telegram and more websites. Some of the datasets had vague names like 'logins' or 'credentials,' which made it hard for the team to figure out exactly what they contained. Others, however, gave clues about where the data came from. According to the researchers, the records were most likely compiled by cybercriminals using various infostealing malware , though they noted that some data may also have been collected by so-called 'white hat' hackers. The team at Cybernews, which found the records, said the information available to the wider internet was only briefly, before being locked down, but it is not possible to determine who owned the databases. With more than 5.5 billion people worldwide using the internet, researchers warned that a staggering number of individuals likely had at least some of their accounts compromised. They are now urging users across the globe to change their passwords immediately to protect their data from falling into the hands of cybercriminals. 'The inclusion of both old and recent infostealer logs makes this data particularly dangerous for organizations lacking multi-factor authentication or credential hygiene practices,' the researchers said. Cybernews noted that its researchers identified a database of 184 million records that was previously uncovered in May, found by data breach hunter and security researcher Jeremiah Fowler. 'It barely scratches the top 20 of what the team discovered,' Cybernews explained. 'Most worryingly, researchers claim new massive datasets emerge every few weeks, signaling how prevalent infostealer malware truly is.' The database of 184 million records not only contained secure login data for millions of private citizens, but also had stolen account information connected to multiple governments around the world. While looking at a small sample of 10,000 of these stolen accounts, Fowler found 220 email addresses with .gov domains, linking them to more than 29 countries, including the US, UK, Australia, Canada, China, India, Israel, and Saudi Arabia. 'This is probably one of the weirdest ones I've found in many years,' Fowler told WIRED . 'As far as the risk factor here, this is way bigger than most of the stuff I find, because this is direct access into individual accounts. This is a cybercriminal's dream working list,' the cybersecurity expert continued. In total, Fowler discovered 47 gigabytes of data with sensitive information for accounts on various sites, including Instagram, Microsoft, Netflix, PayPal, Roblox, and Discord. The best action to take right now is to change your passwords if you use any of these platforms and also activate Two-Factor Authentication, which adds another layer of security to logging in by sending a secure code to your phone or email. The unprotected database was managed by World Host Group, a web hosting and domain name provider founded in 2019. It operates over 20 brands globally, offering cloud hosting, domain services, and technical support for businesses of all sizes. Once Fowler confirmed that the exposed information was genuine, he reported the breach to World Host Group, which shut down access to the database. Seb de Lemos, CEO of World Host Group, told WIRED: 'It appears a fraudulent user signed up and uploaded illegal content to their server.' Fowler said 'the only thing that makes sense' is that the breach was the work of a cybercriminal because there's no other way to gain that much access to information from so many servers around the world. The cybersecurity expert warned that this particular breach also poses a major national security risk. Exploiting government email accounts could allow hackers and foreign agents access to sensitive or even top-secret systems. The stolen data could also be used as part of a larger phishing campaign, using one person's hacked account to gain private information from other potential victims.

Mirror's Daily Digest - Assisted Dying Bill vote to largest ever data breach

In this Friday's Mirror Daily Digest, we've pulled together the biggest stories of the day from the historic assisted dying Bill vote to the record-breaking data leak Welcome to the Mirror's Daily Digest, where we'll be pulling together all the best stories of the day from our News, Politics, Weather teams and more. This Friday, we're featuring everything from today's historic vote which saw MPs decide whether assisted dying should be legalised, through to a massive data breach which is said to be one of the largest in history. Our Weather team has been closely following the Met Office thunderstorm warning, which could bring with it sudden flooding, with some urged to "consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit". Meanwhile, our Politics team has covered the Norfolk Tory chief who is facing calls to quit after making a joke about 'poor people'. ‌ Urgent warning for Apple, Facebook & Google users to change passwords now ‌ People who use Apple, Facebook and Google have been urged to change their passwords following the largest ever data breach, which has exposed a staggering 16 billion logins. The data leak, which also affects logins for Instagram, Microsoft, Netflix, PayPal, Roblox, Discord, Telegram, GitHub, has given cybercriminals and hackers "unprecedented access to personal credentials" Government services in more than 29 countries were also targeted in the attack, which were most likely obtained with infostealer malware, which can infiltrate systems and steal sensitive information like login details. CyberNews researchers said that another alternative was that the data was collected by ethical hackers to spot flaws in the system. This breach shows how an astronomical number of people are likely continuing to use compromised accounts, making them more at risk of cybercrime. Criminals use personal information to take over accounts, steal identities, and carry out targeted phishing attacks, CyberNews adds. Researchers said in their report: "This is not just a leak – it's a blueprint for mass exploitation. With over 16billion login records exposed, cybercriminals now have unprecedented access to personal credentials that can be used for account takeover, identity theft, and highly targeted phishing." Assisted dying law passes Commons in historic moment ‌ In a historic moment in the Commons today, MPs voted to back a landmark bill to change the law on assisted dying in England and Wales. They voted by 314 in favour of the legislation to 291 against - a majority of 23 - as supporters of assisted dying jumped and hugged each other outside Parliament. It means the controversial legislation - spearheaded by the Labour MP Kim Leadbeater - will now pass to the House of Lords where it will be debated by peers. The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill aims to give terminally ill people over the age 18 with just six months left to live the option to end their life early. Their decision must be "clear, settled and informed" at every stage - and free from coercion. ‌ It must also be subject to approval by two doctors and an expert panel featuring a social worker, senior legal figure and psychiatrist. Assisted dying is currently banned and carries a maximum prison sentence of 14 years. Met Office issues thunderstorm warning with 'flash flood' risk despite heatwave ‌ Sun-loving Brits are in for a disappointment, as the Met Office has issued a thunderstorm warning which is set to temporarily break the scorching heatwave. Our Weather team has covered the yellow warning, which is in place from 3pm tomorrow until 4am Sunday morning in the East Midlands, North East England, North West England, Wales, West Midlands and Yorkshire & Humber. The storms could cause sudden flooding that could in turn make the roads difficult to navigate. There could be some road closures as a result, the forecaster added. The flooding could also leave some communities isolated as roads are cut off. The Met Office said that power cuts were also a possibility, with the potential for services to homes and businesses being lost. In the event of lightning strikes, there could be bus and train cancellations in the affected areas. In a statement, it said: "Whilst many places will likely remain dry and unaffected, scattered thunderstorms may develop during Saturday afternoon, lasting through the evening hours, moving northeastwards before eventually clearing to the North Sea by the early hours of Sunday. ‌ "The most intense thunderstorms could produce frequent lightning, large hail and gusty winds, along with some heavy downpours for a time. This may lead to some surface water impacts in places. Consider if your location is at risk of flash flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit." Tory council chief sparks outrage with 'poor people' steak dinner joke ‌ In other news, our Politics team has reported on the Tory council chief who is facing calls to quit after posting a picture with the caption: "Wonder what all the poor people are doing?" Norfolk County Council leader Kay Mason Billig posted the photograph of her meal with a £21 bottle of Italian red wine, potatoes in peppercorn sauce and salad to her Facebook friends. But the caption sparked a furious reaction, with tens of thousands of people in Norfolk forced to rely on food banks and her own council runs an £11.8m fund to help people struggling to afford to eat. Mrs Mason Billig, who is entitled to more than £51,000 in allowances from County Hall each year, told the EDP website the sharing of the post beyond her friends was a "personal attack" and a private joke had been misunderstood. However, Steve Morphew, leader of the Labour group at County Hall, said: "People like to have council leaders who show they are in touch, care about the plight of others and show humility and pride in the public positions they hold. This is a nauseating example of the exact opposite. I find nothing amusing here." ‌ Multiple primary school children injured after 'mass casualty incident' Finally, our News team has been closely following a disturbing incident in Berlin, where almost 40 children were injured at a primary school after tear gas was sprayed on site. ‌ Emergency services rushed to Miriam Makeba School in the city of Moabit at around 9am this morning. Multiple kids complained of shortness of breath and eye irritation after the substance was used in the hallway. Police, firefighters and medics attended the scene and treated 37 pupils. Officials evacuated the building in response to the incident. Worried parents raced to the school to check on their children. An investigation has since been launched into the mass casualty. Police said they are investigating the incident under causing bodily harm, reports BZ Berlin. A spokesperson for the fire services said: "We cared for 37 children and provided outpatient care; none of the children required hospital treatment."
