"GoDaddy Hackers Stole Source Code, Customer Details"

Threat actors have accessed GoDaddy's servers via the cPanel shared hosting environment and installed malware in an attack that has spanned several years. According to the company, the breach was discovered in December 2022, after investigating customer complaints about sites used to redirect to random domains. The company found that at least three security incidents from 2020 to 2022 can be attributed to the same attacker. GoDaddy says that the same attackers carried out the 2021 breach when the company's email addresses of up to 1.2 million Managed WordPress customers had been accessed by an unauthorized third party. The same group is believed to be responsible for the 2020 incident, in which threat actors compromised the hosting login credentials of around 28,000 hosting customers and GoDaddy employees. In the most recent attack, threat actors redirected users to seemingly random websites through malware. GoDaddy claims that the issue has been resolved, and security steps have been taken to prevent further attacks. This article continues to discuss the GoDaddy breach.
