AutoZone is warning tens of thousands of its customers that it suffered a data breach as part of the Clop MOVEit file transfer attacks.
Earlier this year, the Clop ransomware gang exploited a zero-day MoveIT vulnerability to breach thousands of organizations worldwide, following up with double extortion and data leaks impacting millions of people.
AutoZone informed the U.S. authorities today that it suffered a data breach as part of these attacks on May 28, 2023, resulting in the compromise of data of 184,995 people.
"AutoZone became aware that an unauthorized third party exploited a vulnerability associated with MOVEit and exfiltrated certain data from an AutoZone system that supports the MOVEit application," reads the notification.
The data leaked by the cybercriminals is roughly 1.1GB in size, containing employee names, email addresses, parts supply details, tax information, payroll documents, Oracle database files, data about stores, production and sales information, and more.
