Parler has been comprehensively hacked, as most people will have heard by now. Lots of information about this on Reddit but some choice details to share:
Also, although they were using Okta for identity management, they were using a free trial account!?!
Allegedly, when Parler lost its auth service the fix was not to take the site down, while a replacement was found, but to temporarily bypass the authentication step. This allowed the takeover of the admin account and creation of many more admin accounts.
