Subscribers to MoveOn.org's mailing lists may have found their interest in the anti-Bush political site a matter of public record.
A Web page misconfiguration left dozens of the liberal political group's subscriber pages easily searchable through simple Google queries. Each page included a subscriber's name, e-mail address and the mailing lists to which he or she is subscribed. CNET News.com confirmed that several related searches turned up more than two dozen individual subscriber pages.
The discoverer of the MoveOn.org problem, Web developer Shawn Smith, found the information accidentally, he said. Smith, a member of MoveOn.org, had searched Google for information on recent video clips sponsored by the political group. Along with a link to the clips, he found that several of the other search results pointed to Web pages with subscriber information.
"I just wanted to see the (video) spots," Smith said. "Instead, I found these other sites."
Smith alerted MoveOn.org to the problems, and the Web site fixed the issues.
"This is extremely disturbing," said one subscriber, when contacted through e-mail. The subscriber asked that his or her name not be used. "I'm not sure if I should be worried or not, but I am," the person said.
