The compromised data also includes classified information and communications between the Five Eyes countries and their allies.

Implications of the Leak

If confirmed, the leak could have significant implications for national security and the operational integrity of the intelligence-sharing network.

The Five Eyes alliance is known for its collaborative intelligence gathering and analysis efforts, playing a pivotal role in global security operations.

At the time of reporting, there has been no official statement from any of the Five Eyes member countries or Acuity Inc. regarding the authenticity of the leaked documents or the extent of the breach.

The silence from official channels has led to speculation and concern among cybersecurity experts and government officials alike.

Cybersecurity agencies are likely to conduct thorough investigations to ascertain the validity of the claims made by the hackers.

The incident underscores the persistent threat cybercriminals pose to national and international security.

Hackers Using Credential Stuffing Attack

On October 6, 23andMe revealed that hackers had gained access to some user data. The company claimed that the hackers had used credential stuffing, a technique where they tried combinations of usernames or emails and corresponding passwords that were already known as a result of other data breaches, to gather the stolen data.

The company said that when customers reused login information, that is when usernames and passwords used on 23andMe were the same as those used on other websites that had previously been hacked—threat actors were able to access specific accounts.

“Threat actor may have then, in violation of our Terms of Service, accessed 23andMe.com accounts without authorization and obtained information from certain accounts, including information about users’ DNA Relatives profiles, to the extent a user opted into that service”, the company said.

The hacker publishing the stolen information, Golem, seems to have first tried to sell the user details. On Wednesday, he stated: “I would like to remind you that even the data I’m sharing here is extremely valuable.”

On August 11, a hacker posted an advertisement on the Hydra forum for a set of 23andMe user data. According to a TechCrunch study, that collection of user data matched some of the user details exposed two weeks prior.

The hacker stated having 300 gigabytes of 23andMe customer data on Hydra, although the hacker offered no support for this claim.

Hence, the company advised customers to take additional precautions to keep their accounts and passwords safe and stated that they were seeking the help of third-party forensic experts and federal law enforcement officials.

The company requires all customers to change their passwords, and they encourage the usage of multi-factor authentication (MFA).
