Genetic testing provider 23andMe confirmed that hackers stole health reports and raw genotype data of customers affected by a credential stuffing attack that went unnoticed for five months, from April 29 to September 27.

The credentials used by the attackers to breach the customers' accounts were stolen in other data breaches or used on previously compromised online platforms.

As the genomics and biotechnology company disclosed in data breach notification letters sent to those impacted in the incident, some of the stolen data was posted on the BreachForums hacking forum and the unofficial 23andMe subreddit site.

The leaked information includes the data for 1 million Ashkenazi Jews and 4.1 million people living in the United Kingdom.
