Just when you thought all of the fallout from the LastPass hack back in 2022 was over, hackers have now used stolen data from that incident to launch a series of attacks on users of the popular password manager.

In case you’re in need of a refresher, back in 2022, LastPass fell victim to multiple hacks in which its source code, API tokens, MFA seeds and keys were stolen from customers. With all of this valuable data in hand, hackers then launched a series of attacks in which they went after users’ crypto. Up until this point, LastPass was considered one of the best password managers and came highly recommended.
