Red Hat Confirms Major Data Breach

ech giant Red Hat has acknowledged that it is investigating a security incident affecting its consulting arm, following public claims by a hacking group, Crimson Collective, that it gained unauthorized access to internal repositories and obtained sensitive customer data. While Red Hat affirms the breach, it says it “has no reason to believe” that its core product services or software supply chain is affected.

The hackers shared their claims on a Telegram channel launched on September 24, 2025. To support their assertions, they posted the full file directory, a list of supposedly stolen CERs, and several additional screenshots.
