AdultFriendFinder's parent site Friend Finder Networks, which offers various adult entertainment services, was hacked last month due to Local File Inclusion vulnerabilities as per a researcher who goes by the name '1x0123' on Twitter, reports CSO online. The researcher went on to post images to show the vulnerability in Local File Inclusion being triggered. As per the report, the researcher has confirmed that the vulnerability has been exploited and was found in AdultFriendFinder's production server module.

The other websites owned by Friend Finder Networks include Cams.com, Penthouse.com, Stripshow.com, iCams.com, and an unknown domain. As per the data from Leaked Source, Cams.com has a total of around 62 million s while Penthouse.com has around 7 million s. Stripshow and iCams both have around 1 million s ed.

Due to this breach, a total of 412 million s have been put at risk by the company. The total data that has been put at risk due to this hack has been collected by the various sites over last 20 years.

Sensitive details like names and s are already accessible for many s and ZDNet has even confirmed that some of the data leaked was authentic.

Shocking as it may be, this is not the first time that data from AdultFriendFinder has been breached as last year in May, data of around 3.9 million s was leaked by hackers, as per an investigation by Britain's Channel 4.

Last year, online dating website for cheating spouses - Ashley Madison, was breached by hackers who threatened to leak the personal details of 37 million of the site's s unless the website was shut down.
