What happened

In approximately mid-2020, Mashable suffered a data breach that subsequently turned up publicly in November 2020. The data included 1.4 million unique email addresses along with names, genders, expired auth tokens, physical locations, links to social media profiles and days and months of birth. The data was provided to HIBP by dehashed.com.

Description by Have I Been Pwned

What data leaked

  • Auth tokens
  • Email addresses
  • Genders
  • Geographic locations
  • IP addresses
  • Names
  • Partial dates of birth
  • Social media profiles

What to do if you had an account

  1. Turn on two-step sign-in. Enable two-factor authentication where the service offers it, preferably with an authenticator app or a passkey. A leaked password alone is then not enough to get in.
  2. Expect targeted phishing. Leaked contact details are used to write convincing fake messages that mention the breached company or your real name. Do not click links in unexpected emails or texts about this account; go to the site by typing its address.
  3. Guard against identity fraud. Identity documents and dates of birth cannot be changed like a password. Consider a credit freeze or fraud alert where your country offers one, and be wary of anyone who 'verifies' you using those details.
  4. Sign out everywhere. Use the service's 'sign out of all devices' option so that stolen session tokens stop working, then sign in again.
