Major U.S. automotive aftermarket parts vendor Advance Auto Parts had 3 TB 
of data containing sensitive customer and employee details claimed to be 
stolen by the threat actor dubbed "Sp1d3r" following the compromise of its 
Snowflake cloud storage environment, reports BleepingComputer.

Included in the trove of information being sold for $1.5 million were 380 
million customer profiles, 140 million customer orders, 44 million 
Loyalty/Gas card numbers, and data from 358,000 former and current Advance 
employees, as well as sales history, auto part numbers, employment candidate 
details, and transaction tender data, according to Sp1d3r. Other Snowflake 
customers were also alleged by the threat actor to have had their data 
exfiltrated since the intrusions began in mid-April but have since paid the 
demands of their attackers.

Such a development comes after both recent breaches of Ticketmaster and 
Santander Bank were linked to compromised Snowflake accounts, with the cloud 
storage firm attributing the incidents to the targeting of organizations 
without multi-factor authentication.
