Hackers Take Limo Service Firm for a Ride

Summary: A breach at CorporateCarOnline, a Kirkwood, Missouri company that brokers limousine reservations nationwide, exposed more than 850,000 credit card numbers with expiry dates, names and addresses, including 241,000 high- or no-limit American Express accounts. The plain-text archive was found on the same servers holding data stolen from PR Newswire and source code from Adobe, and the site carried a ColdFusion vulnerability, suggesting the same attacker or attackers were involved in all three compromises.

Why it matters: The stolen records include travel dates, locations and private jet tail numbers for Fortune 500 CEOs, members of Congress and celebrities, and among the 850,000-plus entries are travel records for Mandiant staff including CEO Kevin Mandia, who was later sent booby-trapped PDF limo invoices by a group he identified as based in China.
