According to a recent report from Insider Gaming, citing “people familiar with the events,” the recent Ubisoft hack may not be as severe as initially reported and was largely blown out of proportion. The report states that claims suggesting the breach involved more than 900GB of stolen data and source code are false, as the group behind the allegations was unable to provide evidence to support them. Additionally, Insider Gaming’s sources claim that the individuals who initially took responsibility for the breach later backtracked, stating that they “just wanted clout.”
Ubisoft was affected by a significant data breach. While the company has not officially confirmed the identity of those responsible, rumors suggest the attack was carried out via MongoDB using a security exploit known as “MongoBleed.” The breach allegedly targeted Rainbow Six Siege and its backend systems on December 27. Following the incident, players reported widespread bans and unbans, while others claimed to have received billions of R6 Credits and Renown, as well as access to developer-only skins and Glacier cosmetics.
