This article is extremely dishonest and should be removed. It offers zero proof this is what lead to the compromise. The leaked credentials were reported over a year ago and patched according to FireEye.
There are already comments here from users who presumably haven't read the article and are parroting this as fact.

The resulting binary included a backdoor and was then discreetly distributed into targeted organizations." - which means that somehow a signing certificate must have been stolen or reverse engineered. Not simple.
- hackerpain 6y agoThe article has mentioned its purely based on speculation, it doesn't claim - it was the cause. There has to be a bigger chain of attacks that led to the breach.
