This is Han, I'm one of the co-founders from Mintlify. For the security of our customers from the publicity we were expecting from the announcement, we've decided to leave out the technical details of the breach in the blog post. The source of this security incident was due to an uncaught error response in one of our APIs that didn't properly format the response before sending it back to the client. The response contained our internal admin tokens, which can then be used to access internal endpoints, which unveiled sensitive user information. Our initial patch upon discovering the incident fixed the response of the vulnerable endpoint, but we have since also implemented a sweeping number of security provisions and are also in the process of completely deprecating the admin tokens and GitHub OAuth entirely to prevent an incident like this from ever happening again. |

You are contradicting yourself here.

Why would you leave that out? Seems like it is vital information.
