MangaDex discloses data breach after stolen database shared online

Manga scanlation site MangaDex disclosed a data breach last week after learning that the site’s user database was privately circulating among threat actors. MangaDex is one of the largest manga scanlation sites where visitors can read manga comics online for free. The exposed data includes members’ user names, email addresses, last known IP addresses, and bcrypt hashed passwords. The site has since been offline while they work on releasing a newer version of their site using source code that was not compromised. The data appears to be from the data breach of Xsplit live streaming software in 2013 and it not the MangaDex database.
