April 23: Vercel CEO said in a social media post that the team has completed an in-depth security investigation, analyzing nearly 1 petabyte of full Vercel network and API logs—scope far exceeding the initial Context.ai account breach. Investigators found the attacker’s activity extended beyond Context.ai, with broader malware distribution targeting account keys from platforms including Vercel. Once the keys were obtained, the attacker rapidly and extensively enumerated non-sensitive environment variables. Current steps include: deepening collaboration with industry partners (Microsoft, AWS, Wiz, etc.) to safeguard the broader internet ecosystem; notifying other potential victims, urging immediate credential rotation, and strengthening security best practices.
