Internal source code and documents have been stolen from LastPass by a cyber-thief.

The password manager maker said on Thursday that someone broke into one of its developer's accounts, and used that gained access to proprietary data.

"We have determined that an unauthorized party gained access to portions of the LastPass development environment through a single compromised developer account and took portions of source code and some proprietary LastPass technical information," CEO Karim Toubba said in a statement.

We're told that these master passwords are still safe, and haven't been accessed, despite this month's intrusion, and the contents of people's vaults are also untouched.

"Our investigation has shown no evidence of any unauthorized access to customer data in our production environment," LastPass said in a statement.

That said, LastPass has not been blunder free over the years.
