Grand Theft Auto 5 Source Code Leaked
On Christmas Eve, the source code for Grand Theft Auto 5 was reportedly leaked, over a year after the Lapsus$ threat actors hacked Rockstar games and stole corporate data by gaining access to the company's internal Slack server and Confluence wiki.
Links to download the source code were shared on numerous channels, including Discord and a Telegram channel. The channel owner “Phil” also paid homage to Lapsus$ hacker Arion Kurtaj, who previously leaked pre-release videos of Grand Theft Auto 6 under the name 'teapotuberhacker.'
The Lapsus$ hackers have stood out for their skills at performing social engineering and SIM swapping attacks to breach corporate networks. Some known cyberattacks attributed to the hacking group include Uber, Microsoft, Rockstar Games, Okta, Nvidia, Mercado Libre, T-Mobile, Ubisoft, Vodafone, and Samsung. While the Lapsus$ group has not been continually active after some members were arrested, it is now believed to be active in the loose-knit hacking collective known as Scattered Spider.
