The open-source data visualization tool Grafana stated on platform X that it recently discovered an unauthorized attacker had obtained a token that could access the Grafana Labs GitHub environment and used it to download the code repository.

An investigation confirmed that this incident did not involve customer data or personal information leakage, and no impact on customer systems or business operations was found. After the incident, forensic analysis was immediately initiated, and it is believed that the source of the credential leak has been identified. Additional security measures have also been deployed to strengthen environmental protection.

Furthermore, Grafana disclosed that the attacker attempted to demand a ransom to prevent the code repository from being made public, but the company ultimately decided to refuse to pay the ransom and will release more information about the incident review after the investigation is completed.
