AI reasoning platform Fireworks has been hacked again: some customer data leaked
According to reports from Forbes and other media outlets, Fireworks, an AI inference infrastructure company supported by Nvidia, announced on Monday that hackers accessed some customer datasets and models over the past month, with leaked information involving billing and account information, addresses, payment records, and some unfinished AI models. Fireworks attributed the incident to "LLMjacking" (stealing AI model access and reselling it) and is currently collaborating with Unit 42, a subsidiary of Palo Alto Networks, to investigate.
The company disclosed earlier in October that internal credentials had been used without authorization, and on October 24, another attack affected its R&D data storage. Fireworks has approximately 10,000 enterprise customers, including Uber, Shopify, Cursor, and was valued at $17.5 billion in July of this year.
