VK: 100mn passes stolen from Russia’s biggest social network

https://thestack.com/security/2016/06/06/vk-100-million-clear-text-passwords-stolen/

The breach was reported by LeakedSource, which has added the 100,544,934 records to its database of 1.8 billion purloined records, and has provided a searchable interface for the data.

The question is what went wrong? It seems that the passwords were in clear text, system could be hacked and hack was not detected soon enough.
