ShinyHunters expose 6.4M in attack on medical supplier McKesson
ShinyHunters leaked stolen McKesson data exposing roughly 6.4 million individuals after the medical supplier reportedly declined a $55.2 million extortion demand.
Have I Been Pwned added records leaked by ShinyHunters from medical and pharmaceutical supply company McKesson, confirming the August 2026 attack affected about 6.4 million people. Exposed data includes names, email and physical addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, employer details, and sensitive health information; ShinyHunters claimed SSNs and 284 million documents were taken, though HIBP found no SSNs. The group issued a $55.2 million extortion demand that was apparently unpaid before publication. The article also notes Boston Scientific expects to miss Q3 guidance after its own attack, and that Veradigm disclosed attackers used third-party vendor credentials to access an API and steal roughly 3.5 million patient records claimed by ransomware group The Gentlemen.
