On October 4, 2026, Double Counter, a Discord security bot, suffered a data breach that exposed user data after an attacker exploited a vulnerability in the Metabase analytics tool. The attacker accessed the bot's cloud systems, copying 12 GB of database records and using a stolen bot token to post unwanted invitations across approximately 50 large Discord servers. Double Counter confirmed that no backdoor was left behind and restored services the same day. They reported $7,316 in fraudulent charges on a separate payment account but assured that customer funds remain safe. Discord has since halted new installations of the bot while investigating the incident. The breach highlights the risks associated with third-party integrations on platforms like Discord.
