Grafana Labs discloses GitHub breach and ransomware attack, confirms no impact on customer production systems
Grafana Labs released a security update on May 20, confirming that the company suffered a targeted network attack on May 16. The attacker gained unauthorized access through a GitHub repository, downloaded its full codebase, and then issued a ransom demand.
The incident stemmed from a compromise of the TanStack npm supply chain. After securing initial access, the attacker exploited a missed GitHub workflow token to breach Grafana’s internal repository environment.
Grafana emphasized that its ongoing investigation has found no impact on customer production systems or the Grafana Cloud platform. The breach was limited to the company’s GitHub environment, including source code and some content from internal collaborative repositories—no code was altered during the attack.
The company noted that the downloaded data may contain more than just source code: it could include internal operational details, business contacts’ names and emails, though no production system data was exposed.
