Hack of online shoe retailer reveals customers’ and administrators’ passwords

I try to remember to check data dumps on Pastebin to see what’s showing up.  Today I see a data dump of customer data reportedly acquired from online shoe retailer Zapateria Orinoco. There are 487 customers’  e-mail addresses, clear-text passwords, security questions and security answers.

Ugh.

But wait, there’s more.  Two administrator accounts with clear-text passwords.

Double ugh.

The hacker, who identifies him/herself as @n4n0Cynet, does not offer any explanation for this particular incident, but appears to affiliate with Anonymous.
