A-list directors, actors and celebrities exposed in Tribeca film festival data leak

A security researcher discovered four publicly accessible, unencrypted databases connected to the Tribeca Film Festival, including a development database containing over 203,000 records. The databases lacked password protection and exposed sensitive information about festival-associated individuals.

Why it matters: Film industry professionals, festival organizers, and anyone whose data was in these databases face privacy and social engineering risks; practitioners should review their own cloud storage and database configurations for similar misconfigurations.
