Password management software firm LastPass disclosed a “second attack,” a threat actor used data stolen from the August security breach and combined it with information available from a third-party data breach. Then the attackers exploited a flaw in a third-party media software package to target the firm.

“Our investigation has revealed that the threat actor pivoted from the first incident, which ended on August 12, 2022, but was actively engaged in a new series of reconnaissance, enumeration, and exfiltration activities aligned to the cloud storage environment spanning from August 12, 2022 to October 26, 2022.” reads the update published by the company. “The second incident saw the threat actor quickly make use of information exfiltrated during the first incident, prior to the reset completed by our teams, to enumerate and ultimately exfiltrate data from the cloud storage resources.”
