Beyond the Perimeter: Building Resilience Against Cloud and SaaS Supply-Chain Attacks
ShinyHunters exploited an Oracle PeopleSoft zero-day to steal data and extort roughly 100 organizations, including the Council of Europe, for up to $2.3M.
Between May and early June 2026, the ShinyHunters group exploited a critical zero-day in Oracle PeopleSoft across about 100 organizations and 300 instances worldwide, per reports cited by The Register. Stolen records included employee and student personal data, payroll, tax, financial and health information, plus immigration and passport documents. AgentCypher.ai estimates extortion demands of $400,000 to $2.3 million per victim, typically in Bitcoin; the Council of Europe refused to pay. The article uses the incident to argue for Zero Trust, supply-chain risk management, rapid patching, encrypted distributed backups and defined recovery-time objectives.

Mathspace discloses data breach affecting over 1 million people
Mathspace disclosed a Metabase breach exposing data of 1,079,819 students, parents, and staff in Australia and New Zealand.
Mathspace confirmed attackers exploited a vulnerability in its self-hosted Metabase reporting system, gaining administrator access without legitimate login and downloading data on over 1 million people (1,079,819 total) in Australia and New Zealand. Access began August 10, data was downloaded August 27, and the theft was confirmed September 3, 2026. No credentials, academic records, or school-account links were exposed, but affected individuals are warned of targeted phishing. The incident joins a broader campaign against Metabase instances, including Trezor's provider ShipMonk, Framework, and Tally, linked to ShinyHunters via extortion emails and leak-site listings.

McKesson copes with fallout from data theft extortion attack
McKesson discloses a data theft extortion attack by ShinyHunters affecting oncology and medical-surgical customers, with a reported $55 million demand.
McKesson disclosed that attackers gained access to some of its third-party applications and stole data associated with a subset of customers in its oncology, multispecialty, and medical-surgical business units; the intrusion ran for four days from August 21 and was discovered August 25. ShinyHunters claimed responsibility and listed McKesson on its data-leak site, reportedly demanding more than $55 million with a September 1 deadline. Flashpoint analysts say the group typically uses social engineering and identity weaknesses with valid credentials to access cloud-hosted environments, making the intrusion hard to detect. McKesson, which distributes about one-third of pharmaceuticals used in North America with $403.4 billion in annual revenue, says operations continue and it has reasonable assurance of no ongoing unauthorized activity.
