Vercel Confirms Cyber Incident After Sophisticated Attacker Exploits Third‑Party Tool

Vercel confirmed an incident in which a sophisticated attacker used access from a third‑party tool (Context.ai) to take over an employee Google Workspace account and access some Vercel environments and environment variables not marked as sensitive; Vercel states sensitive variables are protected and there is no evidence they were accessed, and alleged leak claims (linked to "ShinyHunters") were disputed.
