**Executive summary:** An attacker scraped roughly 15 million Trello public profiles by abusing an unauthenticated API endpoint that returned user profile data when queried by email; the dataset (usernames and emails) was put up for sale on the dark web, and Atlassian has since tightened the API to block unauthenticated email-based profile queries while leaving authenticated public-profile access intact.
