| DoorDash | Breach | 85 | 4 | 11/2025 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack with significant impact with customers data leaksDescription: DoorDash experienced a data breach affecting **4.9 million customers, drivers (Dashers), and merchants** after an attacker exploited credentials from a **third-party vendor** to gain unauthorized access. Exposed data included **names, email addresses, phone numbers, delivery addresses, order history hashes, and the last four digits of payment cards** for Dashers. While **no full financial details, SSNs, or government IDs were compromised**, the leaked contact information heightens risks of **targeted phishing, smishing (SMS scams), and vishing (voice fraud)**, with attackers potentially impersonating DoorDash support or merchants. The breach originated from **social engineering**, tricking an employee into divulging access credentials. DoorDash blocked the intrusion, engaged law enforcement, and began notifying affected users, though no direct fraud or identity theft has been confirmed yet. The incident underscores vulnerabilities in **supply chain attacks** and the persistent threat of human manipulation in breaches. | |||||||
| DoorDash | Breach | 85 | 4 | 6/2019 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack with significant impact with customers data leaksDescription: In October 2025, DoorDash suffered a **sophisticated social engineering attack** where an unauthorized third party tricked an employee into granting access to internal systems. The breach compromised **personal information**—including names, email addresses, phone numbers, and physical addresses—of an unspecified number of **customers, delivery workers (Dashers), and merchants**. While DoorDash claimed no 'sensitive' data (e.g., credit cards, SSNs, passwords) was exposed, the leaked details pose risks for **phishing, identity theft, and targeted scams**. The incident mirrors past breaches (2019: 5M users; 2022: driver license numbers), highlighting persistent vulnerabilities in **employee training and third-party risk management**. The company offered **free credit monitoring** but faced criticism for reactive measures. The breach underscores systemic gaps in the gig economy’s cybersecurity, with potential **reputational damage, regulatory scrutiny, and heightened risks for affected users** (e.g., Dashers’ physical safety). | |||||||
| DoorDash | Breach | 85 | 4 | 5/2025 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack with significant impact with customers data leaksDescription: A DoorDash employee was targeted in a **social engineering scam**, leading to unauthorized access to some **customer data**. While the breach exposed personal information, officials confirmed that **no ID numbers (e.g., Social Security numbers) or payment details** were compromised. The incident highlights vulnerabilities in employee training and susceptibility to phishing or manipulation tactics, which allowed threat actors to bypass security measures. The exposed data may include names, email addresses, or delivery-related information, but the lack of financial or highly sensitive identifiers reduces the immediate risk of identity theft or fraud. However, the breach still poses reputational harm and potential follow-on attacks, such as targeted phishing campaigns against affected customers. DoorDash has not disclosed the exact number of impacted users, but the incident underscores the ongoing risks of human error in cybersecurity defenses. | |||||||
| DoorDash | Breach | 85 | 4 | 10/2025 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack with significant impact with customers data leaksDescription: In November 2025, DoorDash confirmed a data breach resulting from a **social engineering attack** targeting an employee. The attacker successfully manipulated the employee into divulging legitimate credentials, granting unauthorized access to internal systems. While DoorDash detected and contained the intrusion on **October 25**, the attackers had already exfiltrated **personal contact information** of customers, Dashers, and merchants—including **names, physical addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers**. Although no highly sensitive data (e.g., Social Security numbers, driver’s licenses, or payment card details) was compromised, the stolen information poses a significant risk for **follow-on attacks** such as spear phishing and vishing. The breach underscores the vulnerability of human elements in cybersecurity, emphasizing the need for **AI-driven threat detection** to mitigate dwell time and prevent data theft from compromised identities. | |||||||
| DoorDash | Vulnerability | 50 | 2 | 7/2023 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack limited on finance or reputation:Description: A vulnerability in **DoorDash’s systems** allowed threat actors to exploit an unpatched flaw in the **DoorDash for Business** platform, enabling them to send **fully branded, official-looking emails** from **[email protected]** by injecting arbitrary HTML into the 'Budget name' input field. This created a **highly convincing phishing channel**, as emails bypassed spam filters and appeared legitimate. The flaw, reported by a researcher in **July 2023**, remained unpatched for **over 15 months** due to disputes over disclosure ethics and financial demands. While no **direct data breach** or **internal system access** occurred, the vulnerability posed a **significant reputational and financial risk** by facilitating **large-scale phishing attacks** targeting customers, merchants, or arbitrary recipients. The company eventually patched the issue in **November 2024** after public pressure, but the researcher was banned from DoorDash’s bug bounty program amid accusations of extortion. The incident highlights tensions between **responsible disclosure** and **corporate response protocols** in cybersecurity. | |||||||
| DoorDash | Breach | 60 | 3 | 10/2025 | |||
Rankiteo Explanation : Attack with significant impact with internal employee data leaksDescription: DoorDash disclosed a **cybersecurity incident** on **November 13**, confirming a **data breach** caused by a **social engineering attack** targeting an employee on **October 25**. The unauthorized access exposed **personal information** of certain users, including **Dashers and merchants**, such as **names, email addresses, phone numbers, and physical addresses**. While DoorDash stated that **no sensitive data (payment details, government IDs, or Social Security numbers)** was compromised and no evidence of misuse (fraud/identity theft) was found, the breach sparked **public backlash** for downplaying the severity of exposed data (e.g., home addresses labeled as 'non-sensitive').The company **revoked access immediately**, notified affected users, and engaged law enforcement. To mitigate future risks, DoorDash is **reinforcing employee training** and **strengthening authentication protocols**. The incident coincides with **stock volatility** (down **21% this month**) and a separate **$18M legal settlement** with Chicago over deceptive business practices, adding to operational and reputational pressures. | |||||||

Lessons Learned: Importance of Timely Vulnerability Triage and Patch Management, Need for Clear Communication Channels Between Researchers and Companies, Risks of Misaligned Expectations in Bug Bounty Programs (Scope vs. Compensation), Ethical Boundaries in Vulnerability Disclosure (Extortion vs. Good Faith Reporting), Criticality of Input Validation in Customer-Facing Systems (Even 'Non-Critical' Fields Like Budget Names)

Lessons Learned: Supply chain vulnerabilities remain a critical risk vector, especially for third-party vendors with access to credentials., Social engineering continues to be a dominant attack method, bypassing technical controls., Contact information (phone numbers, addresses) can enable highly targeted phishing campaigns even without financial data exposure., Proactive user education and phishing-resistant MFA are essential for mitigating post-breach risks.

Lessons Learned: Importance of robust authentication protocols and employee training to mitigate social engineering risks. Need for clearer communication about the sensitivity of exposed data (e.g., physical addresses).

Lessons Learned: Human error remains a critical vulnerability; robust employee training and MFA enforcement are essential., Third-party risk management requires stricter controls, especially in gig economy platforms with vast PII repositories., Proactive measures (e.g., zero-trust architectures, AI-driven anomaly detection) are needed to prevent recurring breaches., Data minimization strategies can reduce breach impacts by limiting stored PII.

Lessons Learned: Human elements (e.g., social engineering) remain a critical vulnerability despite technical defenses., Security awareness training alone is insufficient; proactive, AI-driven detection (e.g., UEBA, XDR) is essential to mitigate dwell time., Legitimate credentials can be weaponized; behavioral analytics are required to detect anomalous activity post-compromise., Follow-on attacks (e.g., spear phishing) are a major risk when PII is exposed, even without financial data.

FreePBX Endpoint Manager is a module for managing telephony endpoints in FreePBX systems. Versions prior to 16.0.96 and 17.0.1 through 17.0.9 have a weak default password. By default, this is a 6 digit numeric value which can be brute forced. (This is the app_password parameter). Depending on local configuration, this password could be the extension, voicemail, user manager, DPMA or EPM phone admin password. This issue is fixed in versions 16.0.96 and 17.0.10.
Neuron is a PHP framework for creating and orchestrating AI Agents. In versions 2.8.11 and below, the MySQLWriteTool executes arbitrary SQL provided by the caller using PDO::prepare() + execute() without semantic restrictions. This is consistent with the name (“write tool”), but in an LLM/agent context it becomes a high-risk capability: prompt injection or indirect prompt manipulation can cause execution of destructive queries such as DROP TABLE, TRUNCATE, DELETE, ALTER, or privilege-related statements (subject to DB permissions). Deployments that expose an agent with MySQLWriteTool enabled to untrusted input and/or run the tool with a DB user that has broad privileges are impacted. This issue is fixed in version 2.8.12.
Neuron is a PHP framework for creating and orchestrating AI Agents. Versions 2.8.11 and below use MySQLSelectTool, which is vulnerable to Read-Only Bypass. MySQLSelectTool is intended to be a read-only SQL tool (e.g., for LLM agent querying, however, validation based on the first keyword (e.g., SELECT) and a forbidden-keyword list does not block file-writing constructs such as INTO OUTFILE / INTO DUMPFILE. As a result, an attacker who can influence the tool input (e.g., via prompt injection through a public agent endpoint) may write arbitrary files to the DB server if the MySQL/MariaDB account has the FILE privilege and server configuration permits writes to a useful location (e.g., a web-accessible directory). This issue is fixed in version 2.8.12.
Okta Java Management SDK facilitates interactions with the Okta management API. In versions 11.0.0 through 20.0.0, race conditions may arise from concurrent requests using the ApiClient class. This could cause a status code or response header from one request’s response to influence another request’s response. This issue is fixed in version 20.0.1.
The Auth0 Next.js SDK is a library for implementing user authentication in Next.js applications. When using versions 4.11.0 through 4.11.2 and 4.12.0, simultaneous requests on the same client may result in improper lookups in the TokenRequestCache for the request results. This issue is fixed in versions 4.11.2 and 4.12.1.
