Most Solyenters are familiar with LaCie, a French company that makes computer hard drives. They're now owned by Seagate, and maintain their own online storefront, which was one of many hit by hackers in a recent credit card data breach. This time, the baddies exploited vulnerabilities in the Web application platform ColdFusion, which has been ongoing for almost an entire year.
Shadowy but usually reliable sources told the site Krebs on Security that the people behind these smaller breaches might be the very same outfit that stole as many as 150 million customer records from Adobe in 2013, and information from major data brokers like LexisNexis and Dun & Bradstreet earlier that same year.

People are still using ColdFusion? That's the real news here.

I would not touch Cold Fusion with a ten foot poll, and I have seen the horrors of slash :)
