Lapsus published a screenshot on Telegram before quickly deleting it. Some users were able to grab a screenshot, showing that the group is claiming access to Microsoft DevOps resources. It seems the threat actors purposely pulled the post quickly knowing people would screenshot it. The image was accompanied with the message “deleted for now will reports later.” In the Lapsus post, the group provides the following list of DevOps resources it claims to have breached:
“Bing_STC-SV: Project contains the source code for various Bing engineering projects in the Silicon Valley office Bing_Test_Agile: This is the test project for Bing using the Agile template. Bing_UX: Bing.com frontend (SNR) and other related UX codebase Bing Cubator Bing Source Code: The central project for storing all of Bing Source Code. Compliance_Engineering: WebXT Compliance Engineering team project. Cortana: The main Cortana project, its related code, and work items. Creative Authoring”
Details
Importantly, it seems the image only shows a small part of a whole page. In other words, it is likely many more resources are compromised and Lapsus is just giving a snapshot. Microsoft has yet to comment on the claims. Lapsus has already been responsible for numerous breaches this year, such as against Vodafone and Samsung. Earlier this month, the group leaked a possible source code for the NVIDIA DLSS feature following a week-long data breach. Tip of the day: When Windows 10 or Windows 11 has issues, it’s not rare to run into startup problems. Corrupted Windows files, incorrect system configuration, driver failure, or registry tweaks can all cause this issue. Using Windows startup repair can fix boot issues caused by the most prevalent issues. Though it may seem that all is lost when you run into startup problems, it’s important to try a Windows boot repair so you can at least narrow down the source of the issue. If it doesn’t work, you may have to reinstall the OS or test your hardware.
