Posted on March 14, 2018 by Dissent

On February 6th, 2018 researchers at Kromtech security came across another publicly accessible Amazon s3 bucket.  This one contained a MSSQL database backup, which was found to hold the personal information, including names, addresses, zip codes, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, ip addresses, and, most shockingly, plain text passwords, for shopping accounts of over 1.3 million people (1,314,193 to be exact) throughout the US and Canada.

At first glance the data appeared to belong to Walmart as the storage bucket was named ‘walmartsql‘, but upon further investigation by Kromtech researchers it was discovered that the MSSQL database backup inside actually belonged to MBM Company Inc., a jewelry company based in Chicago, IL, which operates mainly under the name  Limogés Jewelry.
