A misconfigured cloud database exposed 149 million login credentials harvested by info stealer malware, affecting Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, TikTok, and other services. The 96GB dataset included passwords, URLs, and device identifiers enabling account takeovers. Security researcher Jeremiah Fowler discovered the breach, which contained 48 million Gmail accounts, 17 million Facebook accounts, and millions more across various platforms. The credentials were collected through keylogging and info stealer malware.
