By exploiting the vulnerability, people could patch together a data record of both public and private information \u2013 such as the private phone numbers and emails of high profile users.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-h26idz\">The bug was caused by an update to Twitter\u2019s code in June 2021. It was patched once identified, but in July 2022, Twitter learned \u201ca bad actor had taken advantage of the issue before it was addressed\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-h26idz\">That came after someone attempted to sell the email addresses and phone numbers of 5.4 million users. Twitter said it would alert users confirmed to have been affected by the breach.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"21b83105-6498-4e0c-bbd8-d5eafe11bf67\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\"
