Hack or no hack? Oracle denies theft of 6 million records
Briefly

On Thursday evening, a hacker named rose87168 claimed to have compromised Oracle Cloud, stealing six million records which allegedly include sensitive data for 140,000 tenants. Despite these assertions, Oracle firmly denies any breach, maintaining that the credentials shared do not belong to their cloud services. Speculations suggest that vulnerabilities in Oracle's servers may have been exploited, particularly a critical flaw in Access Manager. While the attacker demanded a ransom in cryptocurrency, Oracle's refusal aligns with legal standards against negotiating with cybercriminals. Given evidence shared by the hacker, the situation raises concerns for organizations utilizing Oracle Cloud to reset credentials promptly.
