The CyberPanel platform experienced a substantial PSAUX ransomware attack impacting 22,000 instances. Attackers exploited vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access, encrypting data and demanding ransom to release the affected systems. This caused significant disruption to services and likely resulted in financial losses and reputational damage. Affected users faced the potential compromise of sensitive information, and the attack triggered a response to bolster security measures to prevent future incidents.
