Food delivery firm DoorDash has disclosed a data breach exposing customer and employee data that is linked to the recent cyberattack on Twilio.
In a security advisory released Thursday afternoon, DoorDash says that a threat actor gained access to the company's internal tools using stolen credentials from a third-party vendor that had access to their systems.
Using this access, the threat actors could access the data of 163 Twilio customers and use that data in further supply-chain attacks.
"To date, our investigation has identified 163 Twilio customers - out of a total customer base of over 270,000 - whose data was accessed without authorization for a limited period of time, and we have notified all of them," explains an updated Twilio security advisory.
The fallout from this attack is just being realized, with Twilio disclosing this week that the hackers were also able to access 93 Authy 2FA accounts as part of the breach.
DoorDash previously suffered a data breach in 2019 that exposed the data of nearly 5 million customers.
