PuffPal Leak Exposes One Million Passports, Apple Discounts

Amazon continues to sell select Apple devices at post–Prime Day discounts, including M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pro models, AirPods and AirTag 2. 14‑ and 16‑inch MacBook Pros show discounts up to $549 (examples: 14‑inch M5 Pro 24GB/1TB for $2,149.99; 16‑inch M5 Pro 24GB/1TB for $2,649.99), AirPods 4 are available for $99, and AirTag 2 one‑packs hit $24.

Sean Hollister reports that security researcher Sammy Azdoufal found the PuffPal app used by Spanish cannabis clubs exposed about one million members' photo IDs and personal details — including passports, phone numbers, addresses and consumption records — through predictable public URLs and hard-coded keys. Bruce Schneier warned that reusing high-value credentials in low-security, ancillary systems risks broad exposure and highlighted the dangers of expanding mandatory age-verification requirements online.
