An attack aimed at bypassing two-factor authentication cookies for Google Chrome users has been confirmed—here’s what you need to know.

Chrome extension vulnerabilities leave millions at risk of 2FA bypass attacks, with hackers targeting multiple companies.

A hacker phished a Cyberhaven employee to upload a malicious version of the company's Chrome extension, but it may not be the only victim.

New details have emerged about a phishing campaign targeting Chrome browser extension developers that led to the compromise of at least thirty-five extensions to inject data-stealing code, including those from cybersecurity firm Cyberhaven.

Hackers have compromised several different companies' Chrome browser extensions in a series of intrusions dating back to mid-December, according to one of the victims and experts who have examined the campaign.

Hackers were reportedly able to modify several Chrome extensions with malicious code this month after gaining access to admin accounts through a phishing campaign. The cybersecurity company Cyberhaven shared in a blog post this weekend that its Chrome extension was compromised on December 24 in an attack that appeared to be “targeting logins to specific social media advertising and AI platforms.

As Google confirms multiple high-rated security vulnerabilities across multiple platforms—the advice is simple but urgent: update your Chrome browser now.

The attack began after a hacker successfully targeted a Cyberhaven employee via a phishing email that was sent to Chrome extension developers. The employee, believing the email was an official Google contact, clicked the email and input their login credentials on the phishing page.

The recent compromise of Cyberhaven’s Chrome extension appears to be part of a broad campaign that started over a year ago.

The data-loss startup says it was targeted as part of a "wider campaign to target Chrome extension developers."
