Computer hardware manufacturer Cooler Master has suffered a data breach after a threat actor breached the company's website and claimed to steal the Fanzone member information of 500,000 customers.

Cooler Master is a hardware manufacturer based in Taiwan that is known for its computer cases, cooling devices, gaming chairs, and other computer peripherals.

Yesterday, a threat actor by the alias 'Ghostr' contacted BleepingComputer and claimed to have stolen 103 GB of data from Cooler Master on May 18th, 2024.

"This data breach included cooler master corporate, vendor, sales, warranty, inventory and hr data as well as over 500,000 of their fanzone members personal information, including name, address, date of birth, phone, email + plain unencrypted credit card information containing name, credit card number, expiry and 3 digits cc code," the threat actor told BleepingComputer.

Cooler Master's Fanzone site is used to register a product's warranty, submit return merchandise authorization (RMA) requests, contact support, and register for news updates.

In a conversation with BleepingComputer, Ghostr told BleepingComputer that the data was stolen by breaching one of the company's front-facing websites, allowing them to download numerous databases, including the one containing Fanzone information.
