A well-known security researcher has discovered an unsecured database containing 191 million US voter registration records. The data includes names, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, party affiliations and even logs of whether or not voters had participated in primary or general elections.
The validity of the data has been confirmed by several publications including Forbes. Chris Vickery told the publication he has at his disposal 300GB of voter data which seems to date back to 2000.
Fortunately, sensitive data including social security numbers and financial details aren’t included in the database.
