Summary

  • Environment: Ecommerce logs and PC payment-entry processing
  • Operational impact: EC site stopped; limited app functions restored
  • Financial impact: No confirmed incident cost quantified
  • Record status: Developing record. Reviewed November 11, 2026; updated as evidence emerges.

What happened

EDION confirmed vulnerability-driven access to ecommerce logs November 5, 2026. A later investigation also found malicious code in PC payment processing. Its corrected second report dates the shutdown to November 7 at 22:00 JST. [1][2]

Impact

  • Initial log findings covered overlapping customer groups totalling fewer than 13,685 people, plus unlinked entries of unresolved volume. [2]
  • Revised findings included up to five card-data error logs, 5,360 gift cards and credentials for up to 1,141 customers. These categories cannot be added together. [1]
  • PC payment tampering potentially exposed up to 556 new-card entry events. Smartphone payment entry was outside that program’s scope. [1]
