On March 19th, the Cybernews team discovered three exposed servers containing data for Wahlap users. Wahlap is a China-based arcade maker, one of the largest in the world, partnering with gaming giants such as Sega, Warehouse of Games, Timezone, and others.
Here are the key findings:
- In total, 18.9 million records were left exposed online, covering Wahlap members’ identifiers, gaming behavior data, asset information, customer snapshots, and application logs.
- According to our team, the data most likely leaked via Wahlap’s WeChat mini programs. WeChat mini programs are lightweight applications that run inside the WeChat ecosystem.
- The exposed information can be broadly put into five index categories: Wahlap members data, members’ gaming behavior data, Wahlap asset data, consumer snapshot data, and other indices.
We have reached out to Wahlap and will update this article once we receive a reply. Several days after the discovery, the team noticed that the exposed cluster was no longer publicly accessible.
