LWN recently reported on the Trivy compromise that led, in turn, to the compromise of the LiteLLM system; that article made the point that the extent of the problem was likely rather larger than was known. The Next Web now reports that the Trivy attack was used to compromise a wide range of European Commission systems.

The European Union's computer emergency response team said on Thursday that a supply chain attack on an open-source security scanner gave hackers the keys to the European Commission's cloud infrastructure, resulting in the theft and public leak of approximately 92 gigabytes of compressed data including the personal information and email contents of staff across dozens of EU institutions.
