A data breach has exposed the personal details of thousands of gun owners and led to police closing its firearm buyback platform.

The details of more than 37,000 firearm owners, including the guns they possess and bank account information, may have been made publicly available, according to the Council of Licensed Firearms Owners (Colfo).

The gun lobby group said it had received the data from a supporter and has released some images obtained in the breach, with personal details redacted.

Police confirmed the "potential privacy breach" on Monday afternoon
