The official railway website 12306.cn was hacked and the personal information of more than 130,000 users was leaked online.
The leak came as the Spring Festival travel rush nears, a time of year when hundreds of millions of people travel back to their hometowns to celebrate Chinese New Year with their families.
The leak, first found by security loophole publishing platform Wooyun.org, had put a dent in train ticket sales, the website said yesterday.
The website, which has reported the incident to police, and Internet security experts advised users to change their passwords.
Millions of people use 12306.cn to buy train tickets for the Spring Festival.
Hackers had also broken into many e-mail accounts. Cyber security firm Chuangyu said this was possible because some people used the same password for both their e-mail and 12306.cn accounts.
