HabboSt

In February 2017 the Habbo hotel private server named HabboST suffered a significant data breach. The incident resulted in the exposure of over 888 thousand records from the gaming site database. The compromised information included a large volume of unique user credentials. Specifically the breach involved the leaking of user email addresses and usernames along with IP addresses. Passwords were also exposed in the form of MD5 hashes utilizing a static salt. This type of security failure often occurs due to vulnerabilities in old forum software or private server management scripts allowing unauthorized access to the backend storage.
