Monteroza: newsletter member data may have leaked via Arara breach (625,429 email addresses)

Monteroza learned on November 2 that newsletter members' personal data may have leaked through unauthorised access to its vendor Arara's servers.

Last updated: 2026-11-09

Overview

The vendor reported 625,429 email addresses, of which 31,333 include optional birth date, gender, prefecture and similar fields (a subset). The cause was given as a web-server vulnerability in the vendor environment. Per the company, this stems from unauthorised access to the Arara email-delivery platform (recorded separately); this figure is a subset of the vendor scope and must not be added to it.
