LastPass says unknown attackers breached its cloud storage using information stolen during a previous security incident from August 2022.

The company added that, once in, the threat actors also managed to access customer data stored in the compromised storage service.

"We recently detected unusual activity within a third-party cloud storage service, which is currently shared by both LastPass and its affiliate, GoTo," the company said.

"We have determined that an unauthorized party, using information obtained in the August 2022 incident, was able to gain access to certain elements of our customers' information."

Lastpass said it hired security firm Mandiant to investigate the incident and notified law enforcement of the attack.

It also noted that customers' passwords have not been compromised and "remain safely encrypted due to LastPass's Zero Knowledge architecture."

"We are working diligently to understand the scope of the incident and identify what specific information has been accessed," Lastpass added.
