Questions about this signal

What happened in this signal?

At least nine organizations have publicly acknowledged the impact of the supply chain attack on market intelligence platform Klue. The incident occurred on June 11-12 and affected Klue’s integration with Salesforce, resulting in data being exfiltrated from the Salesforce instances of multiple Klue customers, including several cybersecurity firms. On Friday, Klue confirmed previous security reports that the attackers used compromised legacy credentials to access its systems and compromise Salesforce integrations. “The attacker used that access to obtain OAuth tokens used to connect Klue with certain third-party platforms, including Salesforce, and subsequently accessed data within a number of connected customer environments,” Klue said. The company revoked the affected credentials and tokens, disabled the integrations across multiple services, and has been investigating the attack together with CrowdStrike and law enforcement. “Based on our investigation to date, the incident was limited to the affected third-party platforms, and there is no evidence that customer content stored within the Klue platform was impacted,” the company said.

To date, at least nine Klue customers have disclosed impact from the incident, including cybersecurity firms HackerOne , Huntress , Jamf , OneTrust , Recorded Future , Snyk , and Tanium . Insurity and Sprout Social also notified their customers of the incident. All the affected companies pointed out that the intrusion was limited to the Salesforce instances and did not involve their systems, as Klue said in its incident notice. Across the board, the hackers stole business information from the affected organizations’ Salesforce CRMs, including sales account data and business contact information, such as names, email addresses, job titles, phone numbers, and business addresses. Salesforce disabled the Klue integration in the wake of the incident, and revenue intelligence platform Gong did the same on Friday, warning that the hackers exploited its Klue integration to access internal licensed user data. “We can confirm no direct impact on call recordings or customer transcripts. Examples of data accessed included user names, user business titles, and user emails,” Gong said. In its analysis of the incident, Huntress suggested that a threat actor named Icarus might have been responsible for the attack. Since then, Icarus has added Klue to its Tor-based leak site, claiming responsibility for the attack and threatening to publish the information stolen from Klue customers’ Salesforce instances. Per the threat actor’s posts, the data would be released on June 22, unless Klue and the affected organizations engage in negotiations.

The disclosure comes after cybersecurity firms Huntress and ReliaQuest detailed how attackers abused compromised Klue Battlecards integrations to steal Salesforce CRM data from multiple organizations. In a statement published this week, Klue CEO Jason Smith confirmed that the company discovered unauthorized activity on June 12 affecting part of Klue's integration infrastructure. "On June 12, we identified unauthorized activity affecting a portion of Klue's integration infrastructure. Since then, we've been working alongside trusted cybersecurity experts to understand what happened, support our customers, and restore the connections you rely on," wrote Smith . "Our investigation determined that an attacker gained access through a compromised legacy credential associated with an integration service. The attacker used that access to obtain OAuth tokens used to connect Klue with certain third-party platforms, including Salesforce, and subsequently accessed data within a number of connected customer environments." The company says there is currently no evidence that customer content stored directly within the Klue platform was impacted and that the incident was limited to third-party integrations. Klue says it immediately revoked affected credentials and tokens, removed unauthorized code, disabled impacted integrations, launched an investigation, and notified law enforcement. The company also confirmed it engaged CrowdStrike to assist with the response. ReliaQuest and Huntress found that the attackers used stolen OAuth credentials associated with Klue integrations to access customer Salesforce environments and conduct large-scale data theft. ReliaQuest observed attackers generating OAuth tokens and using Python scripts to query Salesforce's API for extended periods, as data was stolen. Huntress later disclosed that its own Salesforce environment was affected by the Klue breach and that the stolen data included business contacts, sales communications, pricing information, and other records. While BleepingComputer and Huntress previously linked the incident to the Icarus extortion operation, the threat actors have now publicly claimed responsibility on their data leak site. "As you've probably already heard, Klue.com has been impacted by us recently. A number of other companies' Salesforce instances, which were partners to Klue, were exfiltrated," reads the Icarus post. Security teams log 54% of successful attacks and alert on just 14%. The rest move through your environment unseen.
