Steam's security has been compromised due to a data breach affecting 89 million users' credentials linked to a vendor that Valve may have utilized. This breach was first reported by a Twitter user, revealing that a hacker known as Machine1337 claimed to possess user records, including usernames and passwords, as well as sensitive information such as two-factor SMS logs and message metadata. Users are urged to reset their passwords and enable two-factor authentication to mitigate potential risks, even though Steam itself has not reportedly been directly breached.
"This is a fresh leak that includes more than user names and passwords - though they didn't share specifics."
"Whenever user details leak online, the first thing bad actors try to do is to also see if the same credentials are in use on multiple sites."
