LifeJournal: 26 million of records stolen in 2014 sold on the dark web.




Blogging platform LifeJournal did experience a data breach in 2014 but credentials appeared online this year.
According to different sources, the first hackers’ mention of the data availability started in the end of 2018. Another blogging platform, DreamWidth, forked previously from the LifeJournal, was also targeted via multiple credential stuffing attacks.
While LifeJournal never confirmed a breach, multiple resources had published some details found on the dark web. ZDNet with a help of threat intelligence firm Kela has confirmed the existence of the LifeJournal database online.
