Oh Joy, Salesloft Got Pwned. Again.
Right, listen up you lot. Google’s just dropped a steaming pile of bad news about Salesloft. Apparently, their OAuth implementation is shitter than I thought – and that’s saying something, considering what I see all day. It wasn’t *just* Salesforce integrations getting compromised like they initially said. No, it was everything connected via OAuth. Every. Single. One.
Some scumbag managed to snag tokens allowing access to user data from Google Workspace (Gmail, Calendar, Drive – the usual). Google’s been notifying affected users, but honestly, if you use Salesloft, assume your shit is compromised and change *everything*. Passwords, MFA keys, the lot. Don’t be a bloody idiot.
Salesloft claims they patched it, blah, blah, blah. They’re saying it was a limited window, but honestly? I’ve seen “limited windows” turn into full-blown data heists before. The root cause is some dodgy code handling OAuth redirects – basically, someone didn’t bother to validate input properly. Standard incompetence, really.
They are offering free credit monitoring and identity theft protection. Which is great, I guess, if you like jumping through hoops after getting your data leaked in the first place. Prevention would have been nice, wouldn’t it?
Seriously, OAuth is supposed to be *secure*. This isn’t rocket science. It’s basic fucking security hygiene. Get your act together, people.
And another thing…
Reminds me of this time a company tried to secure their system by implementing a password policy that required all passwords to be at least 8 characters long and contain one uppercase letter. One. Uppercase. Letter. I swear, some people just *want* to get hacked. It’s infuriating.
