Docker, a company that created an open platform for building and running distributed applications, reported to users that its Docker Hub database had been breached, exposing sensitive data from approximately 190,000 accounts. While that figure makes up less than five percent of Hub users, the data included some usernames and hashed passwords as well as GitHub and Bitbucket tokens for Docker auto-build. The company reported that the tokens have been revoked, and said it “acted quickly to intervene and secure the site.”
Experts who spoke with Motherboard indicated that the worst-case scenario is that hackers gain access to the proprietary source code of some of those accounts. For context, companies on Docker’s roster include the likes of Paypal and Visa. Microsoft quickly reported that its official files hosted in Docker Hub were not compromised.
