incident · incident:zabka-supplier-account-jira-gitlab-secrets-2026-07
Unauthorised access at Żabka, Poland's largest convenience-store franchise chain, confirmed by the company at the start of August 2026: the access came through an external service provider's account and, to Żabka's stated current knowledge, reached the ticketing system; it was detected and immediately blocked, with the data-protection regulator, law enforcement and CERT Polska notified. A criminal-forum seller separately claimed a far larger scope reaching source-code repositories and production infrastructure, a claim the reporting outlets explicitly frame as the attacker's own and unverified (Niebezpiecznik, Sekurak, 2026-08-03).

Initial Access TA0001
T1078Valid Accounts×1
Adversaries may obtain and abuse credentials of existing accounts as a means of gaining Initial Access, Persistence, Privilege Escalation, or Defense Evasion. Compromised credentials may be used to bypass access controls placed on various resources on systems within the network and may even be used for persistent access to remote systems and externally available services, such as VPNs, Outlook Web Access, network devices, and remote desktop. Compromised credentials may also grant an adversary increased privilege to specific systems or access to restricted areas of the network. Adversaries may choose not to use malware or tools in conjunction with the legitimate access those credentials provide to make it harder to detect their presence.

Collection TA0009
T1213Data from Information Repositories×1
Adversaries may leverage information repositories to mine valuable information. Information repositories are tools that allow for storage of information, typically to facilitate collaboration or information sharing between users, and can store a wide variety of data that may aid adversaries in further objectives, such as Credential Access, Lateral Movement, or Defense Evasion, or direct access to the target information. Adversaries may also abuse external sharing features to share sensitive documents with recipients outside of the organization (i.e., Transfer Data to Cloud Account).
