Pakistani Matrimonial App DDil Ka Rishta' Exposes Data of Thousands of Users



Pakistani matrimonial platform Dil Ka Rishta has reportedly exposed personal data and user pictures of 5,663 individuals due to a critical vulnerability discovered in its mobile application programming interface (API).

According to reports, the security flaw allowed sensitive user information to become accessible, raising serious concerns regarding digital privacy, cybersecurity practices, and protection of personal data on online platforms.

Cybersecurity experts warn that vulnerabilities in APIs can expose private information if applications lack proper authentication, access controls, or secure backend configurations. Platforms handling sensitive personal and identity-related information are expected to implement stronger data protection measures and regular security audits.

The incident has sparked wider discussions about cybersecurity awareness in Pakistan’s growing digital ecosystem, especially for apps dealing with personal communication, matchmaking, and private user records.

Experts continue to stress the importance of secure coding practices, responsible data handling, and timely vulnerability management to protect users from privacy risks and potential misuse of exposed information.
