European Space Agency confirms breach of "external servers"

The European Space Agency disclosed a cybersecurity incident in which attackers breached servers outside its corporate network that support collaborative engineering activities; the threat actor claims to have accessed JIRA and Bitbucket for roughly a week and exfiltrated over 200 GB of data including source code, CI/CD pipelines, tokens, credentials, and configuration files. ESA has started a forensic investigation, implemented mitigations, and notified relevant stakeholders while details about the full extent and impact remain under investigation.
