Summary

Hide ▲

A compromised-account extortion campaign is targeting Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) customers, with executives at multiple companies receiving emails claiming sensitive data was stolen. The activity began on or before September 29, 2025, and investigators said the messages were sent from hundreds of compromised third-party accounts. Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) and Mandiant said the campaign may have affected dozens of organizations and may involve CVE-2025-61882 plus other attack chains used to gain remote code execution on Oracle EBS servers. Oracle has since issued patches, while the theft claims remain unconfirmed and the campaign shows possible ties to Cl0p and prior FIN11-associated infrastructure.
