900+ websites Exposing 10M+ Passwords: Most in Plaintext

Over 900 websites inadvertently expose over 10 million passwords, many of which are in plaintext, alongside sensitive billing information and personally identifiable information (PII) of approximately 125 million users. This massive data exposure is attributed to misconfigured Firebase instances, a popular development platform for creating mobile and web applications, which, due to its ease of use, has led to widespread security oversights.
