⚡️🚨🇫🇷 NEW - France's ANTS portal, the government system issuing IDs, passports, and driver's licenses, has been breached.
Up to 19 million French citizens may be affected. ANTS has confirmed the breach.
Exposed fields include full name, email, address, date and place of birth, phone number, and identity verification data. Confirmed by the Ministry of the Interior.
The threat actor behind the ANTS breach told us he doesn't want any money, he just wanted to prove government systems are easy to hack.
ANTS was breached via an IDOR access control flaw. 80GB of passwords, source code, logs, and PII stolen.
We've seen the samples...
