Threat actors are auctioning the alleged source code for Riot Game's League of Legends and the Packman anti-cheat software, confirmed to be stolen in a recent hack of the game company's developer environment.
Last Friday, Riot Games disclosed that its development environment had been hacked, allowing threat actors to steal source code for League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics, and the company's Packman legacy anti-cheat platform.
Last night, the threat actor behind the attack began selling the alleged source code for League of Legends and the legacy Packman anti-cheat platform on a popular hacking forum.
The threat actor says they are selling the League of Legends source code and Packman for a minimum of $1 million.
While the threat would not share further proof of the stolen source code, they told us they shared some with Ryscu, a YouTuber who creates videos around League of Legends.
BleepingComputer has been unable to independently verify if the source code is legitimate, and Riot Games has not responded to our queries about the source code sale.
