Have I Been Pwned confirms scale for first time
A data breach at AI music generator platform Suno exposed more than 55 million user accounts, according to Troy Hunt's Have I Been Pwned service, which ingested the files.
The dump consisted mostly of email addresses, although phone numbers were also included where users had signed up with them instead, HIBP said.
Tens of thousands of Stripe records further revealed data such as names, physical addresses, purchase amounts, as well as partial credit card data, such as card type, expiry date, and the last four digits of the card number.
The breakdown from Have I Been Pwned puts a figure on the scale of Suno's data breach for the first time since the news of the slip-up broke last week.
