Indian at-home salon platform Yes Madam has exposed sensitive data of hundreds of thousands of customers and gig workers due to a server-side misconfiguration, according to security researcher Anurag Sen of CloudDefense.ai. The exposed data includes full names, mobile numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses, location data, payment links, and device details of over 900,000 users. Yes Madam co-founder Mayank Arya confirmed that the company has since secured the database, but it remains unclear whether the exposed data was accessed by anyone else. Yes Madam operates in over 30 cities across India and has attracted over a million downloads on its mobile apps.
