TeaOnHerTeaOnHer, a dating review app where men can post anonymous accounts of women they have dated, has suffered a major security breach that exposed sensitive user information.
The leak reportedly included driver’s licenses, selfies, email addresses, and private messages from users. Security researchers who uncovered the issue say the data was publicly accessible until earlier this month.
The vulnerability was fixed within a week after TechCrunch first reported the breach. At the time of the breach, it was the second most downloaded free app on Apple’s App Store.
Just weeks after Tea data breach
The breach comes just weeks after the women-focused Tea app, which operates on the same review-based concept, suffered a similar incident that leaked identification documents and other personal data.
Just days after the first breach, Tea had to disable DMs on the app after 1.1M private messages were leaked in a second data leak.
Both apps have received scrutiny from online users, with many discussing the possibility of filing a class action lawsuit against their developers over the data breach.
TeaOnHer’s developers, Newville Media Corporation, have yet to comment on the breach, and The Independent was unable to contact them through email.
