2023 — MOVEit Transfer (CVE-2023-34362) compromise; CL0P

Cataloged incident. Paycor, a payroll and workforce HCM vendor, was swept into the global May–June 2023 MOVEit Transfer mass-exploitation campaign attributed to CL0P. Client notification letters (e.g., Neste US distributed via state attorney-general repositories, and Infotech notice in Maine records) stated that exploitation of CVE-2023-34362 against Paycor’s MOVEit instances could have exposed files in transit containing employee name, date of birth, and Social Security number-class data for downstream employer populations. Totals va Exposed categories include Employer payroll files in MOVEit pipelines—commonly name, DOB, SSN in cited templates. No attested victim count is published for this row yet.

Patterns and analysis

  • Zero-day exploitation and malware — appears across multiple Paycor catalog entries; prioritize controls that address this class of failure.

  • 2026 monitoring — New disclosures roll into this timeline as they are verified or labeled unverified per catalog policy.
