Researchers found that an official Vatican prayer app exposed the personal information of more than 700,000 users worldwide through an insecure configuration. The exposed data included details that can identify individuals and tie them to their use of the app. Faith and health apps are sensitive because the mere fact of using them can be revealing, and religious affiliation is a protected category in many jurisdictions, so even a modest data set carries outsized risk for the people in it. The exposure stemmed from the way the app's backend was set up rather than a sophisticated intrusion, a recurring pattern in mobile app data leaks where access controls are misconfigured.
Chick-fil-A has disclosed a data breach following credential stuffing attacks against customer loyalty accounts. In this kind of attack there is no flaw in the targeted company's systems: attackers take username and password pairs harvested from unrelated breaches and replay them automatically against a login page, and any customer who reused a password elsewhere has their account opened. Loyalty and rewards accounts are attractive because they often hold stored balances, order history, and partial payment details, and they tend to receive less scrutiny than banking logins. Affected customers are advised to change their password.
Data from a November 2025 breach at AI music platform Suno surfaced publicly in July, with Have I Been Pwned indexing 55,282,226 unique email addresses. Alongside the addresses, the corpus held names, phone numbers, physical addresses, and purchase records, plus tens of thousands of Stripe entries containing partial card data: card type, expiry date, and the last four digits. Reporting indicates the intrusion started with malware delivered through third-party code on a developer's machine, which yielded credentials for private repositories and internal databases. Suno has said no sensitive personal information was compromised and has not notified affected users.
Estée Lauder is notifying people that personal information was stolen after attackers reached the Oracle E-Business Suite environment it uses for human resources. The company says an unauthorized third party gained access on or around August 9, 2025, and that it confirmed on June 19, 2026 that personal information had been taken, a gap of more than ten months between intrusion and confirmation. The notice does not name the vulnerability exploited, though the timing lines up with the mass exploitation campaign against Oracle E-Business Suite that ran through last year. Affected people are being offered two years of identity monitoring.
Hugging Face, the largest public repository of AI models and datasets, disclosed an intrusion into its production infrastructure that it says was driven end to end by an autonomous AI agent system. The attacker used code execution paths in the dataset processing pipeline for initial access, then harvested credentials and reached internal clusters, though the company found no evidence that public models or datasets were tampered with. The campaign ran thousands of actions across short lived sandboxes, with self migrating command and control staged on public services. Hugging Face's own AI assisted anomaly detection flagged it, and it has rotated affected credentials and rebuilt compromised nodes.
Ernst & Young is notifying clients of a breach at a third-party IT service management platform used by staff supporting its tax practice. Support tickets submitted through the platform could include attached documents containing client tax information, and the firm says an unauthorized third party accessed the platform between March 28 and April 12 and downloaded documents belonging to a number of clients. EY detected the activity on April 23, roughly two weeks after it stopped, and filed breach notifications with the California Attorney General in July. The exposed data includes personal and financial information used to prepare tax filings.
Coca-Cola disclosed in a securities filing that a ransomware attack on its Fairlife dairy subsidiary has disrupted operations and temporarily suspended production across the United States. The company said Fairlife detected unauthorized access to some systems, including production-related systems, and that it activated incident response and business continuity plans, brought in outside experts, and notified law enforcement. It says product quality and safety were not affected, and Canadian operations continue. The full impact is still being investigated, and no ransomware group has been named. Ransomware at food and beverage producers has caused weeks-long shutdowns and empty shelves in past incidents.
Discount supermarket chain Lidl has notified online shop customers in Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands of a data breach that stemmed from a hack at one of its service providers rather than Lidl's own systems. According to the company, the exposed information involves customer contact and order-related details, while payment card data was not affected. The incident is another example of third-party or supply-chain risk, where attackers compromise a vendor to reach a larger brand's customer data. Even without financial data, the exposed details can fuel convincing phishing and scams that impersonate Lidl, especially messages referencing real orders to make fraudulent requests look legitimate to shoppers who recently used the online shop.
Glendale Community College has had data on roughly 793,000 people exposed after the extortion group ShinyHunters stole files from its student information systems. Have I Been Pwned indexed 793,925 accounts, and the attackers claim to have taken more than 62GB across roughly 304,000 files, including student records with personal identifiers, financial aid exports, immunization logs, admission checklists, and transcripts dating back to 2020. The theft came from the college's PeopleSoft Campus Solutions environment, tying it to the wider ShinyHunters campaign against Oracle PeopleSoft that has hit numerous universities and companies. The breadth of academic and personal data raises the risk of identity theft and targeted phishing against students, applicants, and staff.
US auto insurer AssuranceAmerica has confirmed a breach affecting nearly 6.9 million people, the largest known exposure of Americans' driver's license data this year. The company detected the intrusion on March 17 after attackers compromised a single employee's credentials the day before and copied data files, but a lengthy review of the files was not finished until June 15, delaying notifications until now. The stolen data includes names, contact details, driver's license numbers, auto insurance policy and claims information, and, for some people, Social Security numbers. AssuranceAmerica has not detailed how the employee's credentials were taken, though such incidents are often tied to phishing or credential-stealing malware.
