Million Passports Exposed Online

Nearly a million passports and IDs exposed online after a security researcher uncovered catastrophic flaws in the PuffPal app by Irish cannabis software firm Nefos. The app, meant to streamline club entry, stored sensitive user data with zero protection—anyone could access profiles by tweaking a single number. Among the exposed: celebrities, U.S. visitors, and global users who never expected their private info—or cannabis habits—to be publicly searchable. Nefos finally shut down the app, pledged to notify users and face fines, and is replacing the outsourced dev team with a new, secure version—though it took far too long to act.
