@abdulhamidsonaike: Vercel has confirmed a security breach caused by a compromised third party AI tool called Context.ai. An attacker gained access through a Google OAuth app, leading to unauthorised entry into some internal systems. While Vercel states that encrypted sensitive data remains safe, some non sensitive environment variables were accessed. The team is working with Mandiant and law enforcement to investigate. If you use Vercel, you should check your settings and rotate any credentials as a precaution. This incident highlights the risks of giving broad permissions to third party apps. Stay alert and keep your secrets secure to protect your projects.Vercel has confirmed a security breach caused by a compromised third party AI tool called Context.ai.
