There's not a lot of firm data, but it looks like they were hacked for the period of Thanksgiving 2013 to December 15th. Originally it was thought to be a week, but it expanded. No really solid information has been released as to methods, but it looks like over a million cards were compromised and that it only affected in-store purchases, not online purchases.

It is anticipated that this could become one of the biggest hacks when everything is analyzed, which I find kind of noteworthy for one of such short duration.
