Details of unannounced Disney projects, including games, posted online after another Slack hack
UPDATE: Disney acknowledges attack, as hackers respond.
UPDATE 16/7/24: Disney has now acknowledged the hack of its Slack channels for the first time. "Disney is investigating this matter," a spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter.
Hacker group Nullbulge has meanwhile taken responsibility for the attack, and said it targeted Disney "due to how it handles artist contracts, its approach to AI, and its pretty blatant disregard for the consumer".
ORIGINAL STORY 14/7/24: A number of unannounced Disney projects have leaked online after 1.1TB of internal documents - "every message and file possible", according to the hackers - were reportedly compromised.
Whilst Disney has yet to comment formally on the alleged hack, details from various internal files - including upcoming collaborations with Epic Games' Fortnite, and the Aliens: Fireteam Elite sequel we reported on previously today - have started to pop up on social media.
The leak also allegedly includes the personal information and login details of Disney staff, too.
It's thought the hacking group was able to breach and download the data via Disney's Slack channels, which is also how a British teen was able to access and then leak GTA 6 information ahead of Rockstar's formal announcement.
