    Okta 

    On March 22, 2022, Okta confirmed the screenshots posted online by hacking group, Lapsus$, were related to an incident that occured back in January 2022.

    The hacking group had access to a support engineer’s laptop for five days. The engineer had admin access to perform functions such as resetting customers’ multi-factor authentication (MFA) and passwords.


    Okta reached out to customers who have been impacted by this incident and may have had their data viewed or acted upon by the hacking group. 


    Okta Investigation Link

    Dialpad uses Okta internally to access applications using single sign-on (SSO).


    Dialpad investigated possible effects to our Okta tenant. Dialpad verified Okta Support access was disabled and ran several queries on our Okta system logs for the last 4 months (creating/deleting accounts, password changes, MFA resets, policy changes, admin activity, etc.). No suspicious or unusual activity from Okta Support or Dialpad personnel was discovered in our Okta tenant. 


    Also, Dialpad has not been contacted by Okta with any identified impact, but Dialpad will continue to monitor and investigate any new public reports that may affect us.

    Apache Log4j2 

    A suite of vulnerabilities was discovered in Apache Log4j versions 2.0-alpha1 through 2.16.0 (excluding 2.12.3 and 2.3.1) which dependent on configuration could lead to code execution or denial of service conditions.

    CVEs Include:

    Dialpad investigated possible effects to Dialpad products, infrastructure, and enterprise tooling. There were identified uses of Log4j2 libraries within Dialpad infrastructure and those were patched with emergency patches in each of the identified components. One other component that used Log4j was retired from an infrastructure pipeline upon identification. 


    No end-user components were affected and no actions were required by customers.

    Dialpad also performed a forensic analysis to determine if the vulnerability was used against Dialpad products and no instances were identified.
