Key Takeaway: Logitech Data Breach – Swiss tech giant Logitech joins dozens of major organizations victimized in a sophisticated cyberattack exploiting a critical Oracle vulnerability, marking one of 2025’s largest data breaches.
Logitech Confirms Major Data Breach in Oracle Zero-Day Attack
Logitech International has confirmed a significant cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to employee and customer data through a zero-day vulnerability in Oracle’s E-Business Suite software. The company disclosed on November 14, 2025, in an SEC Form 8-K filing that threat actors exploited the flaw to exfiltrate approximately 1.8 terabytes of sensitive information.
The notorious Clop ransomware gang claimed responsibility for the attack, listing Logitech on its dark web extortion site in early November 2025. Clop alleged the theft included employee information, consumer data, and details about customers and suppliers. However, Logitech stated that “sensitive personal information, such as national ID numbers or credit card information,” was not housed in the compromised system.
The company emphasized that business operations and product manufacturing remained unaffected and that it does not expect the incident to have a material adverse effect on its financial results. Logitech maintains cybersecurity insurance expected to cover incident response, forensic investigations, and associated legal costs.
The Vulnerability: CVE-2025-61882
The attack leveraged CVE-2025-61882, a critical zero-day flaw in Oracle E-Business Suite carrying a severity score of 9.8 out of 10. The vulnerability affects versions 12.2.3 through 12.2.14 and allows unauthenticated remote code execution on unpatched systems.
Security researchers identified that the vulnerability combines multiple weaknesses including server-side request forgery (SSRF), CRLF injection, authentication bypass, and unsafe XSLT processing. These flaws together enable complete system compromise without requiring user credentials or interaction.
Evidence suggests threat actors exploited this vulnerability as early as July 10, 2025—nearly three months before Oracle released emergency patches on October 4, 2025. The exploit chain allowed attackers to force compromised servers to contact arbitrary hosts and execute malicious code on internal systems.
A Massive Campaign Affecting Dozens of Organizations
Logitech is one of nearly 30 confirmed victims in what security researchers describe as the largest exploitation campaign of 2025. The Clop leak website lists alleged victims spanning multiple industries.
Confirmed major victims include Harvard University, The Washington Post (which exposed nearly 10,000 employee and contractor records), American Airlines subsidiary Envoy Air, and technology firm GlobalLogic, a Hitachi subsidiary. Other alleged victims include industrial giants Schneider Electric and Emerson, communications conglomerate Cox Enterprises, and automotive parts supplier LKQ Corporation.
Google’s investigation revealed that attackers compromised more than 100 organizations by exploiting vulnerable Oracle E-Business Suite instances, making this one of the most extensive supply-chain style attacks in recent years.
A Pattern of Zero-Day Exploitation
The Logitech breach reflects the Clop ransomware gang’s established strategy of exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities in widely-used enterprise software to conduct mass-extortion campaigns.
In December 2020, Clop exploited zero-day vulnerabilities in Accellion’s legacy File Transfer Appliance, affecting nearly 100 organizations. The group then targeted SolarWinds Serv-U FTP software in 2021 and Fortra’s GoAnywhere MFT platform in February 2023, breaching over 130 organizations within 10 days.
Most significantly, Clop’s 2023 MOVEit campaign exploited CVE-2023-34362 to compromise approximately 2,773 organizations worldwide and expose personal data of 93.3 million individuals. That campaign affected federal agencies, major corporations like Shell and British Airways, investment firms, and universities including Harvard and Stanford.
Clop’s shift toward single-extortion attacks—stealing data without encryption—has become a hallmark of their operations, with the group prioritizing ransom demands over system disruption.
Logitech Data Breach Response and Mitigation
Logitech stated it “promptly took steps to investigate and respond to the incident with the assistance of leading external cybersecurity firms”. The company patched the zero-day vulnerability following Oracle’s October 4, 2025 emergency release.
For broader protection, cybersecurity experts recommend that organizations immediately apply Oracle’s latest patches, implement multi-factor authentication for administrative accounts, conduct audits of Oracle EBS deployments, and monitor for unusual data exfiltration patterns. Enhanced network segmentation, regular offline backups, and incident response planning are essential safeguards against future attacks.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency added CVE-2025-61882 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on October 6, 2025, and required federal agencies to patch systems by a specified deadline.

Conclusion
The Logitech breach underscores the persistent threat that organized cybercriminal groups pose to global enterprises. With approximately 100 organizations compromised and Clop’s five-year track record of devastating supply-chain attacks, the incident serves as a critical reminder that zero-day vulnerabilities represent an existential risk requiring rapid patching, defense-in-depth architectures, and continuous monitoring.
