# EDION ecommerce log and payment compromise

EDION’s investigation found exposed ecommerce logs and PC payment-entry tampering, prompting a service shutdown and revised data findings.

Last modified Nov 11, 2026 · 2 sources

## 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

## What happened

[EDION](https://www.edion.co.jp/) 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](https://www.edion.co.jp/system/files/news-release/pdf/ja/2026-11/20261109_pr_1_1.pdf) dates the shutdown to November 7 at 22:00 JST. [1](#source-1) [2](#source-2)

## Impact

- Initial log findings covered overlapping customer groups totalling **fewer than 13,685 people**, plus unlinked entries of unresolved volume. [2](#source-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](#source-1)
- PC payment tampering potentially exposed up to 556 new-card entry events. Smartphone payment entry was outside that program’s scope. [1](#source-1)
