Attackers stole sensitive data from thousands of companies over 40 minutes.
What was stolen
Security firms CloudSEK and Hudson Rock reported terabytes of access credentials were exposed in a supply-chain attack on LiteLLM, a popular open-source tool used in AI software development.
The data, scraped from the memory of infected machines in March, included cloud keys, repository tokens, SSH keys, Kubernetes secrets, and credentials for AI providers and package publishing.
The firms said the leaked credentials could allow attackers to access over 2,500 organizations, naming major companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Cisco, Samsung, and Salesforce among the victims.
How the breach happened
The attackers compromised LiteLLM through a prior supply-chain attack on the Trivy vulnerability scanner, a security researcher corroborated. Other software, including KICS and the Telnyx Python SDK, were also infected.
During a 40-minute window, victims who downloaded compromised versions of LiteLLM from its official Python Package Index repository had their machine memory accessed and data sent to an attacker-controlled channel.
Researchers largely credit a group called TeamPCP, described as a highly capable gang largely composed of teenagers, for the attack.
The scale of exposure
Analysts at CloudSEK and Hudson Rock said approximately 434,000 CI/CD software pipelines had credentials exposed after running the compromised software.
The credential archive was so large and complex that researchers reported having trouble identifying all the organizations affected by the leaked data.
Hudson Rock said it made its discovery after analyzing a 195-terabyte file it obtained, while CloudSEK reported finding 'a significant volume of sensitive content at orgs'.

Why this is happeningwritten from what the engine measured
This supply-chain breach is a complex system shock, not just a leak. The dominant force is exploration, which is critically high. This means the full scope and capability of the attack remain unknown, and defenders are scrambling to understand exactly what data was taken and how it could be used next.
Interaction is also at a critical level. The breach has instantly tied together 2,500 victim organizations, law enforcement, and security researchers. Every move one of them makes now directly affects the others, creating a tightly linked response network that is difficult to coordinate but impossible to ignore.
A high level of cost and friction is working against a fast, unified fix. The financial and operational burden on victims to change credentials and shore up systems is immense. Getting thousands of companies and independent developers to cooperate creates significant practical drag, slowing down the overall response.
What could happen nextsealed to the ledger before this was written
Each channel’s width is that outcome’s probability as it was sealed into the ledger, before this page existed. Widths are not rescaled to fill the frame, so branches that do not sum to 100% visibly do not. Where a cost is shown it is the dominant measured drag on that branch, not a price.

The bottom lineprovisional while the story is live
The story is still very much in motion, with the exact path of consequence depending on how the main forces—exploration of the attack's unknowns and the friction of a coordinated response—play out in the coming weeks. The system is in a low-certainty state, meaning future events will determine which forecast branch becomes reality.
What to watch are the specific resolution conditions for each branch. Credential reuse causing new breaches points toward the long-term damage scenario, while a fast cascade of incidents would confirm the imminent chain. A report of successful global credential rotations before major abuse would signal rapid containment.
Over 12 terabytes of data, containing builds of every game uploaded to Steam between 2003 and 2013, has been leaked. We don't know everything in the archives yet because of its massive size. But people have already dug up assets related to the canceled Half-Life 2: Episode 3, content cut from Portal 2, and a […]
Terabytes of credentials leaked in massive supply-chain attack
The data was scraped and exfiltrated from 2,500 users of a compromised AI package.
