Lyrics

[Verse 1]
August tenth, twenty-twenty-six, the breach reports are flooding in
A Canadian hacker cuts a deal, confessing where he's been
He cracked the Snowflake systems open, siphoned data by the ton
Then turned it into leverage, extorting millions one by one
He's pleading guilty now in court, the evidence was stacked
CBC confirmed the story — stolen records, lives impacted

[Chorus]
Zero-day in Metabase, the admin door swings wide
No password, no authentication, walking straight inside
Framework customers, every single one, got caught in the cascade
August tenth, the headlines burn — the price of trust delayed
Zero-day in Metabase, the query line corrupted
SQL injection, sensitive data interrupted

[Verse 2]
Now Metabase is the dashboard tool that companies rely on
To visualize their databases when business carries on
But hidden in the software sat a flaw nobody patched
Attackers wrote malicious queries, bypassed every latch
No login needed — admin access handed on a plate
The Hacker News and Security Affairs confirmed the weight

[Verse 3]
Framework builds the laptops you can upgrade piece by piece
A modular machine for people wanting full release
But their customer records sat in Metabase's broken shell
When the zero-day got weaponized, their data took the fall
TechCrunch broke the notification — all customers in scope
PCMag and How-To Geek laid out the cautionary rope

[Chorus]
Zero-day in Metabase, the admin door swings wide
No password, no authentication, walking straight inside
Framework customers, every single one, got caught in the cascade
August tenth, the headlines burn — the price of trust delayed
Zero-day in Metabase, the query line corrupted
SQL injection, sensitive data interrupted

[Bridge]
Three separate stories, one connected thread
Unpatched software is the tunnel threat actors tread
Snowflake, Metabase, Framework — different names, same lesson carved
Vendor software sitting dusty gets the data harvested
Patch the tool before the exploit finds the seam
Because the attacker never waits for your security team

[Chorus]
Zero-day in Metabase, the admin door swings wide
No password, no authentication, walking straight inside
Framework customers, every single one, got caught in the cascade
August tenth, the headlines burn — the price of trust delayed
Zero-day in Metabase, the query line corrupted
SQL injection, sensitive data interrupted

[Outro]
August tenth, log the date, the vulnerabilities stacked
A Canadian guilty plea, a zero-day extracted
Update your stack, review your vendors, audit what you run
The breach reports keep coming — the security work's not done
