A security researcher found hundreds of documents containing citizens' personal information, such as Aadhaar numbers and COVID-19 vaccination data, exposed online.
Indian government's cloud service, S3WaaS, was found to have a misconfiguration leading to the exposure of sensitive private data to the open internet.
Despite CERT-In acknowledging the issue and pulling down links with sensitive files, some individuals' personal information was still being exposed as of last week.
TechCrunch reported exposed data to CERT-In, which was then secured. The government's cloud service continued to expose data even after warnings from the security researcher.
