Docker Hub hack exposed data of 190,000 users
Summary
The breach came to light after the company started emailing customers about a security incident that took place a day earlier on April 25. "On Thursday, April 25th, 2019, we discovered unauthorized access to a single Hub database storing a subset of non-financial user data," said Kent Lamb, Director of Docker Support. "For users with autobuilds that may have been impacted, we have revoked GitHub tokens and access keys, and ask that you reconnect to your repositories and check security logs to see if any unexpected actions have taken place," Lamb said in the email the company sent customers. The company is also asking users to review GitHub and Bitbucket account login logs for any unauthorized access from unknown IP addresses. A vast majority of Docker Hub users are employees inside large companies, who may be using their accounts to auto-build containers that they then deploy in live production environments.
