Infosec analysts at Hudson Rock believe Snowflake was compromised by miscreants who used that intrusion to steal data on hundreds of millions of people from Ticketmaster, Santander, and potentially other customers of the cloud storage provider.
This week one or more crooks going by the handle ShinyHunters was spotted putting what’s understood to be 1.3TB of data stolen from Ticketmaster up for sale on an underworld forum.
Ticketmaster’s parent Live Nation confirmed today in a filing to the US securities watchdog it had “identified unauthorized activity within a third-party cloud database environment containing company data.”
“On May 27, 2024, a criminal threat actor offered what it alleged to be company user data for sale via the dark web,” the corporation added.
Today, Hudson Rock claimed all that info from Ticketmaster and Santander, and potentially hundreds of other organizations, was stolen from one vendor in particular: Snowflake.
These credentials were supposedly used to sign into the employee’s ServiceNow account, apparently side-stepping Snowflake’s Okta-based access management system.
