Database leak of Malaysia's Institute of Diplomacy and Foreign Relations
Institute of Diplomacy and Foreign Relations (IDFR), Malaysia
Detected6 October 2026 · 11:07 UTC
A threat actor is offering a 2,527-record breach of Malaysia's Institute of Diplomacy and Foreign Relations (IDFR), a government-linked diplomatic training institution, on BreachForums. Although the volume is small, the data belongs to a sensitive foreign-affairs body and could feed targeted phishing or social engineering against officials. The victim is outside the LATAM region, so the relevance for Argentine and regional defenders is indirect rather than a fresh domestic alert.

Base de datos del DETRAN de Brasil con 250 millones de registros filtradaA 250-million-record database attributed to Brazil's DETRAN state traffic departments is being offered on a hacking forum. It would expose drivers' identities, vehicles, licences and addresses at national scale. For LATAM defenders this is a major government/critical-infrastructure leak and a rich source for identity fraud and further targeting.Gov / Military● 93
Filtración de 20.000 registros del gobierno de CorrientesA threat actor posted a 20,000-record database allegedly belonging to the Corrientes provincial government in Argentina (corrientes.gob.ar) just minutes ago. Government datasets usually hold citizen PII, tax, or service records, exposing residents to identity theft and targeted phishing. Any leak of an Argentine .gob domain warrants immediate verification and incident response.Gov / Military● 90
Base de datos del gobierno de Tamaulipas a la ventaA database apparently extracted from the Tamaulipas state government website (tamaulipas.gob.mx) is being offered on DarkForums. State portals typically hold citizen records, official accounts and internal contacts, so exposure enables fraud, credential abuse and follow-on intrusion into e-government services. Defenders at Mexican state agencies should verify the source and assume credential and record compromise.Gov / Military● 45
Base de datos de medio de noticias afiliado a la Fuerza Aérea ArgentinaA database tied to a state-affiliated military news source for the Argentine Air Force was posted for sale on DarkNetArmy in May 2026. It exposes records and accounts linked to an official military-media outlet, useful for phishing and targeting defense personnel. It matters for Argentine CTI context, but the post is months old and is not a fresh alert.Gov / Military● 90
Filtración de base de datos de pagos del MIEM de UruguayA database tied to the payment system of Uruguay's Ministry of Industry, Energy and Mining (MIEM) was posted for leak on DarkForums within the last minutes. It appears to expose government payment records and associated personal/financial data, making it a high-impact breach of a state entity in Latin America. Uruguayan public-sector defenders should treat it as a confirmed government data exposure and watch for downstream fraud, phishing and credential abuse.Gov / Military● 38
Base de datos de un ministerio del gobierno francés a la ventaA BreachForums listing dated 14 April 2026 advertises a database attributed to a French government ministry. Leaks of ministerial data can expose officials, internal contacts and citizen records, which matters for public-sector defenders. It is months old and concerns a European government, not AR-LATAM, so it ranks low for immediate regional alerting.
