Israel-based job search portal CVideo has been hacked by an Iranian hacker of the Black_Devils B0ys group. The details of over 3,300 users have been published online as a result of the breach.

The hacker, Dr.3v1l, has provided HackRead with a file containing email addresses – most of which from walla.com – and passwords in clear text.

As far as his motives are concerned, Dr.3v1l says he has targeted CVideo because he is “AntiMason.”

Judging by the leaked data, the job portal stores the passwords in clear text.

If any CVideo users are reading this, I advise them to immediately change their passwords to prevent cybercriminals from abusing the leaked information. If the same password is used for other accounts, it should be changed for those as well.
