Twenty-five criminal convictions linked to undercover reporter Mazher Mahmood are being re-examined, the CPS has said.
It follows the collapse of the case against pop singer and former X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos.
The CPS says it will now contact defendants or their representatives in 25 past cases in which Mr Mahmood has been involved. They will hand over disclosure packs with materials which may undermine those convictions.
A CPS spokesperson said: "We are providing this information to defence representatives to allow them to consider whether there is any basis for their client's case to be referred to the Court of Appeal or to the Criminal Case Review Commission (CCRC)."
Mr Mahmood, also known as "The Fake Sheikh" because of an identity he assumed during several of his investigations, was suspended from The Sun On Sunday after the Contostavlos trial collapsed.
