ShinyHunters claims it stole 284 million patient records from McKesson
ShinyHunters claims theft of 284 million patient records from McKesson via vishing, Okta takeover, and Salesforce/Snowflake access, demanding $55,236,150.
McKesson disclosed in an SEC filing a cybersecurity incident detected August 25, 2026, involving unauthorized access to third-party applications and data exfiltration affecting a subset of customers in its Oncology & Multispecialty and Medical-Surgical business units. ShinyHunters told BleepingComputer it entered through vishing calls to employees, used stolen credentials to take over Okta single sign-on accounts, and extracted about a terabyte of data from Salesforce and Snowflake environments over four days. The group claims 284 million database rows including names, addresses, Social Security numbers, Medicaid details, medical record numbers, and medication data, and demanded $55,236,150 with a 72-hour deadline; none of these claims have been independently verified.
