Full timeline through 2026
2026 — Anodot / Snowflake-token chain; 119,200 emails/names in HIBP after ShinyHunters leak
Unverified claim — treat actor counts cautiously. In late April 2026, Vimeo confirmed unauthorized access to some customer and user data stemming from the broader Anodot incident, where attackers stole SaaS integration tokens and pivoted into client cloud analytics environments—coverage from BleepingComputer tied the narrative to the same ShinyHunters extortion wave affecting other Snowflake/BigQuery-oriented victims. Vimeo’s blog post described databases accessed as primarily technical in nature—video titles and metadata—with customer email addresses in subsets, Exposed categories include Email addresses, names for some users, technical analytics metadata, and video titles/metadata; no valid login credentials, payment cards, or video content per Vimeo. BreachHistory cites approximately 119K+ affected records in this row. See the vimeo-anodot 2026 record and canonical BreachHistory entry.
