Huh Sung-soo reports:

Asiana Airlines released a statement that there was an exposure of the universal resource locator (URL) for those attached files within contents they uploaded on the frequently asked questions (FAQ) of its Internet bulletin board by some error on the 18th. Accordingly, the air carrier is investigating whether a total of 47,023 contents listed on the FAQ board as of May 2015 have been exposed through web manipulation.
