# Hackers exploit Vercel’s trust in AI integration

**[InfoWorld](https://daily.dev/sources/infoworld)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Vercel disclosed a data breach caused by a compromised third-party AI integration, Context.ai, which abused Google Workspace OAuth to gain access to a Vercel employee's account. Attackers inherited the employee's permissions and accessed internal systems, exposing environment variables not marked as 'sensitive' and a limited subset of customer credentials. A threat actor claiming to be ShinyHunters has allegedly listed stolen data including access keys, source code, and a private database for $2 million on BreachForums. Vercel is working with Mandiant and law enforcement, and has urged customers to rotate credentials and enable sensitive variable protections.
