Canvas Breach Disrupts Schools & Colleges Nationwide – Krebs on Security

New, from me: Canvas Breach Disrupts Schools and Colleges Nationwide

"An ongoing data extortion attack targeting the widely-used education technology platform Canvas disrupted classes and coursework at school districts and universities across the United States today, after a cybercrime group defaced the service’s login page with a ransom demand that threatened to leak data from 275 million students and faculty across nearly 9,000 educational institutions."

"Canvas parent firm Instructure [NYSE:INST] responded to today's defacement attacks by disabling the platform, which is used by thousands of schools, universities and businesses to manage coursework and assignments, and to communicate with students."

A Timeline of MCP Security Breaches (2025-2026)

Model Context Protocol (MCP)는 AI 에이전트와 다양한 도구 및 시스템을 연결하는 표준으로 빠르게 확산되었으나, 2025년부터 2026년까지 다수의 심각한 보안 취약점과 침해 사례가 발생했다. 주요 사건으로는 WhatsApp 채팅 기록 탈취, GitHub 프라이빗 저장소 데이터 유출, Asana의 교차 테넌트 접근 문제, Anthropic의 원격 코드 실행 취약점 등이 있으며, 공급망 공격과 악성 MCP 서버 배포 사례도 보고되었다. 이 사례들은 AI 네이티브 환경에서도 전통적인 보안 원칙이 여전히 중요하며, MCP 생태계의 보안 강화가 시급함을 보여준다.

Le groupe Lamashtu aurait ciblé WOHA, studio d'architecture de référence à Singapour. Une nouvelle illustration que les ransomwares ne font pas de tri sectoriel — cabinets créatifs, PME, associations… tout le monde est dans le viseur. Cartographier ses données sensibles avant l'incident, c'est le premier plan à dessiner. 🏗️🔒 #infosec #ransomware #breach

GitHub hacked. Even the infrastructure that hosts the world's code isn't immune to the occasional plot twist. It's a good reminder: every platform, however central to our ecosystem, deserves the same scrutiny we apply to everything else.

We were told about this at uni today. They took pains to tell us they "only" had access to out names, emails, and messages between people. But don't worry, not our passwords or bank details.

I mean, yes, if they had access to passwords (which ought to be encrypted), or bank details (which ought to be handled separately by someone with better creds than the beleaguered uni IT team), that would be a monumental fuck up bigger than the one that actually happened. But also I* can change a fucking password. I can't change my uni address. And who knows what people have put into "messages".

* yes, I understand passwords matter because most people reuse them and don't change them. It's just a less big deal to me personally.

'Personal information' of Australian students potentially stolen in global cyber attack

The international learning management software Canvas, used by various universities and schools, was hacked on Saturday. One of the facilities impacted says some of its data has been accessed by a "criminal third party".

Coupang signale sa plus grosse perte nette depuis fin 2021 — directement liée à une fuite de données clients en Corée. Un rappel doux mais net : les incidents de sécurité ne restent pas dans les logs. Ils remontent jusqu'aux bilans financiers, trimestre après trimestre.
