Nissan has confirmed that a data breach at Red Hat led to the exposure of information for about 21,000 customers in Fukuoka, Japan. The leaked data includes names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, but no financial information was compromised. This incident marks Nissan's second cybersecurity issue this year.

Red Hat is facing extortion from the ShinyHunters gang after a data breach involving nearly 570GB of sensitive information, including Customer Engagement Reports. The threat actors have leaked samples and set a deadline for ransom negotiations, while also collaborating with other hacking groups to enhance their extortion efforts.

A hacking group known as the Crimson Collective claims to have breached Red Hat's private GitLab repositories, stealing approximately 570GB of sensitive data, including customer engagement reports that detail client IT environments. The attackers assert they have already compromised some of Red Hat's downstream customers using authentication tokens found in the stolen files, while Red Hat has not confirmed the breach or responded to the hackers' extortion demands. The incident raises significant concerns for Red Hat's enterprise users, especially amid ongoing scrutiny over a critical bug in its OpenShift AI platform.
