Uber is notifying thousands of drivers that their personal and driver's license information was stolen in an October breach at Fireworks AI, TechCrunch reported. Notices filed this week say attackers stole internal credentials from the provider and used them to access Uber data.

The notices identify 2,567 affected individuals in Massachusetts, 3,430 in South Carolina and 1,873 in Rhode Island. Illinois and California residents were also notified, but their affected counts were not established. Uber confirmed Fireworks was the vendor involved; the total number of affected drivers remains unspecified.
