Hackers claim to have leaked source code from Sweden's e-government platform, prompting investigations by authorities and CGI Sverige.

Summary

A threat actor, ByteToBreach, claims to have leaked source code and sensitive data from Sweden’s e-government platform, managed by CGI Sverige. CGI confirmed a breach of two internal test servers containing an older application version, but stated no customer or production data was affected. Swedish authorities, including the Minister of Civil Defense, are investigating the leak with CERT-SE and the National Cyber Security Center. IT security expert Anders Nilsson believes the hack appears genuine, and threat intelligence suggests this is part of a larger campaign targeting Swedish and European infrastructure. While the full extent of the leak is unverified, experts warn that the exposed code could be used to identify vulnerabilities in public systems.
