Yes but this wasn't a data breach. This was a data stuffing incident, meaning they took someone else's data dump and tried their email and credentials here.

  • never use the same username and password in two or more places
  • always use MFA, a hard token if you can like a yubikey

It's a breach.

Attackers queried email addresses and trello responded with names and user names.

all the root secrets are available in plain text the generator app at some point, they have to be. moving that to a single purpose device greatly reduces the risk of vulnerabilities in your phone leading to exfiltration via internet connection
