The Authy 2FA app has suffered a data breach, and users need to be wary of smishing attacks / After confirming the serious consequences, think about taking precautions
According to a security alert post posted by app developer Twilio on July 1, the hackers gained access to the Authy Android app database and were able to identify the data associated with the account, including phone numbers. The post states that the account itself was not compromised, which means that the attackers were unable to obtain authentication credentials. However, the leaked phone number could be used in the future for “phishing and smishing attacks.” As a result, Twilio encourages Authy users to “remain vigilant and be highly vigilant about receiving text messages” (Cointelegraph report)
根据应用程序开发商Twilio于7月1日发布的安全警报帖子,黑客获得了对Authy Android应用程序数据库的访问权限,能够识别与账户相关联的数据,包括电话号码。帖子中指出,账户本身没有受到损害,这意味着攻击者无法获得身份验证凭据。然而,泄露的电话号码可能会在未来用于“钓鱼和短信钓鱼攻击”。因此,Twilio鼓励Authy用户“保持警惕,对接收到的短信保持高度警觉”(Cointelegraph报导)
