What happened
In January 2018, the Joomla template website JoomlArt inadvertently exposed more than 22k unique customer records in a Jira ticket. The exposed data was from iJoomla and JomSocial, both services that JoomlArt acquired the previous year. The data included usernames, email addresses, purchases and passwords stored as MD5 hashes. When contacted, JoomlArt advised they were aware of the incident and had previously notified impacted parties.

What was exposed
Email addresses: The email address you used to register or log in. It is the most common field in breaches because it doubles as your username on most sites.
Names: Your first name, surname and sometimes middle name or initials, as you gave them when you signed up. It appears in almost every breach because nearly every account asks for it.
Passwords: The secret you use to sign in, stored by the breached service either in plain text, in a scrambled form called a hash, or encrypted. How it was stored decides how quickly it can be recovered.
Payment histories: A list of past payments linked to your account: dates, amounts, merchants, invoice numbers and sometimes the method used. It is held by billing platforms, subscription services, utilities and payment processors.
Usernames: The handle or login name you chose for an account, which may be public on forums, games and social platforms or used privately to sign in.
