Over 63,000 Records Allegedly Leaked From French Vehicle Inspection Firm Autosur
Threat actors using the aliases ChimeraZ and misere have posted what they describe as a partial database of Autosur (autosur.fr), a French professional vehicle inspection and technical-control (contrôle technique) service used by car owners and dealerships. The leak is a ~211 MB JSON dataset of about 63,349 inspection records covering roughly 20,193 people, shared as sample files of around 25,000 and 38,000 records. Claimed fields include vehicle-owner names, postal addresses, cities, mobile and landline numbers, emails, dates of birth and city of birth, alongside vehicle data such as license plates, VIN/serial numbers, make, model, and mileage. The dataset's scope is unverified.

⚠Potential impact
If authentic, this dataset is more sensitive than a typical directory leak because it pairs identity PII (names, home addresses, dates of birth, city of birth, phone numbers, and emails) with vehicle identifiers such as license plates, VIN/serial numbers, make, model, and mileage. That combination can fuel targeted phishing, fake inspection or recall notices, vehicle-related fraud, identity theft, and even physical-world targeting where a home address is tied to a specific car. A reset_password field appears in the schema, but values are null in the samples, and no cleartext credentials or payment/financial data are referenced. The scope and authenticity are unconfirmed.

UnverifiedSample JSON records and download links were posted to an underground forum behind a reply-gate (“hidden content”); the sample records and download links are not reproduced here. The actors describe the data as a partial leak of the company's database. The claim has not been independently confirmed and Autosur has not publicly addressed it.
