Hundreds of thousands of user account details for porn site xHamster are being traded on the digital underground.
The database of nearly 380,000 users, provided to Motherboard by for-profit breach notification site LeakBase, includes usernames, email addresses, and what appears to be poorly-hashed passwords.
日前在黑客地下黑市流传着据说来自免费色情网站xHamster的注册用户信息,这些信息的规模大约40万,含用户名、邮件地址以及登录密码的HASH值。

Update: After the publication of this article, Alex Hawkins, xHamster spokesperson, told Motherboard in an email, "The only way to respond to this news is to coin a new term: 'Fhack.' A fhack is best defined as a fake hack. There was a failed attempt to hack our database which occurred 4 years ago. The integrity of our user data is secure. Passwords are encrypted and impossible to hack. In short, this was a successful fhack; and a failed hack."
When pressed on how did data traders then obtain a list of xHamster user email addresses, the company said, "We cannot validate that the emails are real and we don't believe that this is a genuine database." This is despite Motherboard's independent verification of the email addresses and usernames.
但是,截止到发表本文,xHamster官方发布回应称,本新闻纯属无稽之谈。该公司的网站是非常安全的,没有发生用户信息泄露事件。该新闻纯粹是一个炒作。至于这些在黑市流传的用户的邮件等信息,其官方称不能确认这些数据的真实性,而且认为这个数据库并不是真实的。
点评:一厢说泄露,另一厢说没有泄露;用户该听哪一方的? |
