Grafana Labs confirms supply chain attack, customer systems not affected
According to a post by Grafana Labs on the X platform, it was confirmed on May 16th that it had suffered a TanStack npm supply chain attack. The attacker downloaded the code repository of its GitHub repository and issued a ransomware threat. The investigation shows that the incident was limited to the GitHub environment, and the customer's production system, operations, and Grafana Cloud platform were not affected. The downloaded content includes the source code and the names and email addresses of some internal business contacts, but the code repository has not been tampered with. Grafana Labs has refused to pay the ransom, notified federal law enforcement agencies, and strengthened defense measures such as CI/CD pipeline security.
