Tea, a dating discussion app that recently suffered a high-profile cybersecurity breach, announced late Monday that some direct messages were also accessed in the incident.

Tea's investigation of the incident found that app users' direct messages had been breached, along with some of their photos. "Out of an abundance of caution, we have taken the affected system offline," Tea said in a statement to CBS MoneyWatch.

Tea, a women's dating safety app that surged to the top of the free iOS App Store listings, suffered a major security breach last week. The company confirmed Friday that it "identified authorized access to one of our systems" that exposed thousands of user images. And now we know that DMs were accessed during the breach, too.
