Turkish Citizenship Database dumped

Who would have imagined that backwards ideologies, cronyism and rising religious extremism in Turkey would lead to a crumbling and vulnerable technical infrastructure? This came via a recent post made in Reddit. This list includes data of the country’s president. The database, which comprises 49,611,709 documents, was posted on the website of an Icelandic group that specializes in divulging leaks on Monday.

This leak contains the following information for 49,611,709 Turkish citizens: (IN CLEARTEXT) Turkish Citizenship Database dumped - blackMORE Ops - 1

  • National Identifier (TC Kimlik No)
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Mother’s First Name
  • Father’s First Name
  • Gender
  • City of Birth
  • Date of Birth
  • ID Registration City and District
  • Full Address

Lesson to learn for Turkey:

  • Bit shifting isn’t encryption.
  • Index your database. We had to fix your sloppy DB work.
  • Putting a hardcoded password on the UI hardly does anything for security.
  • Do something about ! He is destroying your country beyond recognition.

Lessons for the US? We really shouldn’t elect Trump, that guy sounds like he knows even less about running a country than does.

Let’s take a look at the data:

                                     first = '~SNIP~' AND \ 
                                     date_of_birth LIKE '%/%/~SNIP~';

Turkish users already confirmed that the data is Authentic though somewhat outdated. A post in Reddit explains:

Just downloaded the data set, and can confirm it’s real. I’m not in there, but my parents and brother are. The information on there isn’t that critical, but it’s still very disconcerting.

However the database doesn’t contain entries of people born after march 1991.
