Original title: Thieves pilfer environment variables from Trigger AI workflow tool
Trigger.dev disclosed that an attacker gained unauthorized access to environment variables belonging to a subset of its customers.
Trigger offered little explanation in its Sunday security incident report, noting that its investigation had identified exposure across a subset of organizations and that an attacker had gained unauthorized access to environment variables belonging to those organizations. Whatever exploit was used to gain access has been blocked, the company added, and affected customers have been notified of steps they need to take to prevent further security problems.

Trigger is open source and can be self-hosted.
