Suno breach exposes 55 million accounts eight months after a developer was compromised

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.

Check
Suno users should check Have I Been Pwned, change the password there and anywhere it was reused, and be alert to phishing that references their account or past purchases.
Affected
Roughly 55 million Suno users whose email addresses, names, phone numbers, physical addresses, and purchase records were exposed, with partial card data for a subset; most have not been notified.
Fix
Use unique passwords and enable multi-factor authentication where offered. Organizations should treat developer workstations as high value targets, since third-party code running there can hand over repository and database access.

Estée Lauder says attackers took personal data from its Oracle HR system

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.

Check
Organizations running Oracle E-Business Suite should confirm the environment is patched against last year's exploited flaws and review access logs from that period, since intrusions there went undetected for months.
Affected
People whose personal information sat in Estée Lauder's Oracle E-Business Suite human resources environment; the data was taken in 2025 and only confirmed in June 2026, leaving a long window for misuse.
Fix
Affected people should enroll in the offered monitoring and consider a credit freeze. Organizations should patch and segment enterprise resource platforms, limit the personal data they hold, and monitor for unusual access.

Glendale College breach exposes data on 793,000 students and applicants

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.

Check
People connected to Glendale Community College as students, applicants, or staff should watch for a breach notice, check Have I Been Pwned, monitor financial accounts, and be alert to college-themed phishing.
Affected
Around 793,000 Glendale Community College students, applicants, and staff whose personal, academic, financial aid, and health-related records were exposed; the depth of data supports identity theft and convincing targeted phishing.
Fix
Affected people should consider a credit freeze and monitor accounts. Organizations using Oracle PeopleSoft should apply its mitigations, review access logs, and enforce phishing-resistant MFA against this ongoing campaign.

AssuranceAmerica breach exposes driver's license data of 6.9 million people

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.

Check
People insured by AssuranceAmerica should watch for a breach notification, monitor bank and credit accounts and credit reports for fraud, and be wary of messages referencing their policy or claims.
Affected
Roughly 6.9 million AssuranceAmerica customers whose driver's license numbers, contact details, and insurance information were exposed, along with Social Security numbers for some; the data enables identity theft and convincing targeted phishing.
Fix
Affected people should consider a credit freeze given exposed license and Social Security numbers, monitor financial accounts, and treat insurance-themed messages cautiously. Organizations should enforce phishing-resistant MFA on employee accounts.

Accenture confirms breach as attacker offers source code and keys for sale

Accenture, one of the world's largest IT consulting firms, has confirmed a data breach after a threat actor advertised stolen data for sale on a hacking forum. The seller claims to have taken about 35GB of source code along with RSA keys, SSH keys, Azure access tokens and storage keys, and configuration files, and shared a screenshot appearing to show them cloning an internal Azure DevOps repository. Accenture confirmed the breach but did not comment on the amount or type of data involved. If the stolen keys and tokens are valid, they could give attackers a path into Accenture's development systems or cloud infrastructure.

Check
Organizations that work with Accenture or share infrastructure with vendors should watch for supplier notifications, and check how their own source code, keys, and cloud tokens are stored and rotated.
Affected
Accenture and, potentially, its clients; stolen source code, SSH and RSA keys, and Azure tokens could let attackers reach development systems or cloud infrastructure if the credentials are still valid.
Fix
Rotate any exposed keys and tokens, keep secrets out of source code and repositories, enforce short-lived credentials and least privilege for cloud and DevOps access, and monitor development systems for unauthorized use.

Medtronic breach notifications reach 3.8 million people with SSNs and health data exposed

Medtronic has begun notifying about 3.8 million people that their data was exposed in the breach of its corporate IT systems earlier this year, giving a concrete scale to the ShinyHunters attack it first disclosed in April. The exposed information includes names, contact details, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and health-related data, a more sensitive set than the company initially detailed. The intrusion, which the extortion group claimed involved around nine million records, was limited to corporate systems, with Medtronic saying its products, patient safety, and device networks were not affected. Affected individuals are being offered credit monitoring, and several class-action lawsuits have followed.

Check
People who have been customers, patients, or partners of Medtronic should watch for a notification letter, take up any offered credit monitoring, and stay alert to phishing that references Medtronic.
Affected
About 3.8 million individuals whose names, contact details, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and health information were exposed in Medtronic's corporate IT breach; device networks and patient safety were not affected.
Fix
Affected people should enroll in the offered monitoring, consider a credit freeze given the exposed Social Security numbers, and treat medical-themed phishing with caution. Organizations should segment corporate IT from clinical systems.

ShinyHunters leaks Moody Bible Institute data on 2.3 million students and donors

The extortion group ShinyHunters has published data stolen from Moody Bible Institute, a Chicago-based Christian college, after a "pay or leak" campaign. Have I Been Pwned indexed more than 2.3 million unique email addresses along with names, physical addresses, phone numbers, and dates of birth belonging to students, alumni, donors, and supporters. ShinyHunters claimed a much larger haul spanning enrollment, donor, payroll, and communications systems, and some reporting ties the intrusion to the same ShinyHunters campaign that exploited an Oracle PeopleSoft flaw. Most of the leaked email addresses had already appeared in earlier breaches, raising the risk of credential stuffing and targeted phishing.

Check
People connected to Moody Bible Institute as students, alumni, donors, or staff should watch for a notification, be alert to phishing referencing the school, and check Have I Been Pwned.
Affected
Students, alumni, donors, and supporters of Moody Bible Institute whose contact details and dates of birth were exposed (over 2.3 million emails); the data supports credential stuffing and convincing phishing.
Fix
Affected people should reset any reused passwords, enable multi-factor authentication, and treat school-themed messages with caution. Organizations should secure SaaS and HR platforms, enforce MFA, and harden against social-engineering-driven data theft.

Medtronic notifies customers after ShinyHunters breach of corporate systems

Medical device maker Medtronic has begun notifying customers that their personal data was exposed in a breach of its corporate IT systems earlier this year, an attack claimed by the extortion group ShinyHunters. Medtronic noticed unusual activity in mid-April and its investigation found that an unauthorized actor had access between April 13 and 19. ShinyHunters claimed to hold roughly nine million records containing personal and internal corporate data, and Medtronic did not pay, with its listing later removed from the group's leak site. The company says its products, patient safety, and the networks running its medical devices were not affected, crediting separation between corporate and clinical systems.

Check
People who have dealt with Medtronic as customers, patients, providers, or partners should watch for their notification and stay alert to phishing or fraud that references Medtronic or medical accounts.
Affected
Individuals whose personal data sat in Medtronic's corporate IT systems, accessed between April 13 and 19; ShinyHunters claimed about nine million records, though device networks and patient safety were not affected.
Fix
Affected people should monitor for targeted phishing and identity fraud. Organizations should segment corporate IT from operational and clinical systems, harden SaaS and identity against social engineering, and enforce phishing-resistant MFA.

Aflac Japan breach exposes personal data of 4.38 million customers and agents

Aflac Life Insurance Japan, a subsidiary of the US insurance giant Aflac, says attackers broke into its policyholder portal and stole personal data belonging to about 4.38 million customers and agents. The intruders accessed systems repeatedly between June 15 and June 25, when the breach was detected through a surge in traffic, and the company suspended affected systems in response. Exposed data includes names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, gender, and insurance account details, plus premium payment account information for roughly 230,000 people; no credit card data was taken. Aflac says the incident is limited to its Japan systems and does not affect its US operations.

Check
Aflac Japan policyholders and agents should watch for their notification letter, stay alert to phishing and fraud referencing Aflac or insurance accounts, and monitor bank accounts used for premium payments.
Affected
About 4.38 million Aflac Japan customers and agents whose personal and insurance data was exposed, including premium payment account details for roughly 230,000; the breach is limited to Aflac's Japan systems.
Fix
Affected people should monitor accounts for fraud and be cautious of insurance-themed phishing. Organizations should tighten access to customer portals, enforce phishing-resistant MFA, and monitor for unusual access and data exfiltration.

Nissan employee data stolen through Oracle PeopleSoft zero-day attacks

Nissan has disclosed that current and former employees' data was stolen after attackers exploited a zero-day flaw in Oracle PeopleSoft, the software it uses to manage payroll, tax, and personnel records. In a filing with California's attorney general, Nissan said Oracle informed it that the personnel records of hundreds of companies may have been taken. The attacks, tied to the extortion group ShinyHunters, exploited PeopleSoft vulnerability CVE-2026-35273 as a zero-day between late May and early June, primarily hitting education organizations, before Oracle issued mitigations. ShinyHunters has begun leaking stolen data, with Nissan joining victims that include the University of Nottingham and a US insurance regulator group.

Check
Organizations using Oracle PeopleSoft should confirm the CVE-2026-35273 mitigations are applied and review access logs from late May through early June for signs of the data-theft activity Mandiant documented.
Affected
Nissan's current and former employees whose payroll and personnel records were exposed, and the hundreds of other PeopleSoft-using organizations Oracle says were caught in the same ShinyHunters zero-day campaign (CVE-2026-35273).
Fix
Apply Oracle's PeopleSoft mitigations, rotate exposed credentials, and offer affected employees identity protection. Affected individuals should watch for phishing and fraud using stolen payroll and personnel data, including tax-related identity theft.
