Cloud development platform Vercel was hacked

Vercel homepage with the tagline “build and deploy on the AI cloud”

Vercel, a major development platform that hosts and deploys web apps, was compromised, and the hackers are attempting to sell stolen data. A person claiming to be a member of ShinyHunters, which was behind the recent hack of Rockstar Games, posted some data online, including employee names, email addresses, and activity time stamps.

Vercel said that a compromised third-party AI tool was the avenue for attack, though it did not specify which third-party was involved.
