Massive Data Breach: Comcast's Xfinity Exposes Personal Information of 36 Million Customers

Comcast's Xfinity reported a data breach after hackers exploited a vulnerability in software used by the company, potentially accessing customer data including usernames, hashed passwords, Social Security numbers, account security questions, birthdates, and contact information. Xfinity is requiring customers to reset their passwords and recommending two-factor authentication. The breach affected nearly 35.9 million people, according to a filing with Maine's attorney general. The vulnerability, known as "Citrix Bleed," has also been linked to other hacks. Comcast has not yet filed an SEC disclosure about the breach.
