Oracle Cloud faced an alleged data breach, claimed by a threat actor named Rose87168, affecting over 140,000 tenants and potentially exposing 6 million records including sensitive SSO credentials, LDAP passwords, and OAuth2 keys. Despite initial denials, evidence from security researchers at CloudSEK and confirmation from Trustwave SpiderLabs suggest the breach is legitimate, likely due to a critical vulnerability (CVE-2021-35587) in Oracle Access Manager. The breach's nature and the threat to sell or release the data indicate a severe security lapse potentially compromising personal and financial information.
