A server discovered by a Swiss hacker known as maia arson, operated by the US national airline CommuteAir, has been left in the public domain on the internet.
A large amount of company data was found there, including private information about nearly 1,000 CommuteAir employees. Analysis of the server resulted in a text file named “NoFly.csv” – a link to a subset of people in the terror scan database, whose air travel was banned due to suspected or known connections to terrorist organizations.
According to the Maia arson crimes, the list had a total of more than 1.5 million entries. The data included first and last names as well as dates of birth.
CommuteAir, in a statement to the Daily Dot, said that the open infrastructure, which it defines as the development server, is used for testing purposes. CommuteAir added that the server did not disclose any customer information, as previously noted by the maia arson crime.
CommuteAir also confirmed its legitimacy, saying the data is a version of the “federal no-fly list” drawn up nearly four years ago.
