Leaks Reveal Suno Fed Thousands of Hours of Deezer, YouTube and Pond5 Data Into Its AI
DECRYPT ·
A hacker using the Shai-Hulud worm breached Suno in 2025 and leaked source code showing the platform scraped over 113,000 hours from YouTube Music, 62,000 from stock library Pond5, and 12,000 from Deezer, among other sources. The same intrusion reached customer emails, phone numbers, and Stripe payment data for what the hacker describes as hundreds of thousands of users. Suno's own California compliance disclosure had already acknowledged that its training data may include music "subject to intellectual property protection" A hacker broke into AI music platform Suno and walked out with source code that documents, in precise detail, exactly where the company's training data came from. The breach was first reported by 404 Media , which reviewed the leaked files. It confirms what the music industry had been saying in courts since 2024. The intruder claims to have used a piece of malware called the Shai-Hulud worm—named after the enormous sandworms in Frank Herbert's Dune. Suno, one of the largest AI music generators online, lets users type a text description and receive a full song in seconds; building that capability required a substantial training dataset—a collection of audio files used to teach the model what different genres and styles sound like.
