ShinyHunters hackers claim breach of Florida "DAVID" DMV database
ShinyHunters claims it breached Florida's DAVID DMV database via a password-reset flaw, stealing 200,000+ driver records including SSNs.
The ShinyHunters extortion gang added Florida FLHSMV to its leak site, claiming theft of over 200,000 driver records from the DAVID platform since September 3. As proof, the group published a screenshot of Jeffrey Epstein's DMV record showing address, Social Security number, driver's license ID, and registered vehicles. The gang says it compromised DMV employee and FBI agent accounts via a password-reset flaw and iterated through records by ID. Access has reportedly been lost and the flaw is being patched, but ShinyHunters expects to announce breaches of other states' DMV platforms.
