As was reported yesterday, TailTag suffered a security breach that resulted in a rouge notification being sent to devices who had it downloaded and notifications enabled. Further investigation revealed many more vulnerabilities and attack vectors in the app's database, resulting in a security incident where user data was publicly available and breached. There is no evidence that sensitive account access information like passwords were accessible, but this still qualifies as a personal data breach. For EU users, addressing Article 27 and 33 of GDPR is in progress. A full report on the incident is available here: https://tinyurl.com/5n6k9dkp
On July 11, 2026, an unauthorized individual created several TailTag accounts and exploited an overly permissive profile-access rule to retrieve their full user profile records via the publicly accessible TailTag domain. This profile-access rule, originally desinged so you could see the profile of whose fursuit you caught, included general profile information, along with account and app preferences, and technical identifiers used to deliver push notifications. In addition, a separate control requiring server authorization before notifications could be delivered that was assumed to be on by default had not been enabled. Together, these issues allowed the individual to send an unauthorized notification that appeared to come from TailTag itself.
