Internet Archive breached again through stolen access tokens

The Internet Archive was breached again, this time on their Zendesk email support platform after repeated warnings that threat actors stole exposed GitLab authentication tokens.

"Whether you were trying to ask a general question, or requesting the removal of your site from the Wayback Machine your data is now in the hands of some random guy. If not me, it'd be someone else."

BleepingComputer attempted contact the Internet Archive numerous times, as recently as on Friday, offering to share what they knew about how the breach occurred and why it was done, but we never received a response.
